What are ACT and TACT?

ACT: Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is one of the oldest and most widely researched evidence-based practices working with severe mental illness adult clients. By providing person centered assistance including housing, recovery, vocational support, nurse/psychiatrist and therapist services, we enable clients to eventually transition to lower levels of care programs or move toward independence, increasing their quality of life. Clients may include adults with a history of trauma, homelessness, frequent hospital stays, refugees, and clients who have not responded well to traditional outpatient care.

TACT: Transitional Assertive Community Treatment is a subset of ACT and serves clients ages 18-29 who have not successfully engaged in traditionally offered mental health services. Clients may include adults with a history of trauma, homelessness, frequent hospital stays, refugees, and clients who have not responded well to traditional outpatient care. TACT provides person centered assistance including housing, recovery, vocational support, nurse/psychiatrist and therapist services to transition to lower levels of care programs or move toward independence, increasing their quality of life.
