About the Program: Unlike traditional case management services, the iCARE team’s work is focused entirely on building relationships of trust with individuals who have been unable to engage in outpatient treatment. The team uses a combination of personal relationship building and evidenced-based strategies to increase understanding of client needs. This includes changes the behavioral health system might need to make to better serve that person.
Personal Relationship Building Strategies:
Meeting individuals in the location of their choice until they are ready for a next step, whatever that may be
Taking the time to understand an individual’s hopes for their own lives
Offering assistance with basic needs/wants and transportation
Identifying and building on each person’s core interests, gifts, and strengths
Relentless kindness
Once an individual has formed a relationship of trust with the iCARE team, often over the course of many contacts, they are then invited to engage in other community supports and treatment programs.
