Adult Community Support Services
Community Support Services (CSS) are designed to help adults with serious mental health needs build stability, independence, and confidence in daily life. These services focus on supporting individuals as they work toward their personal goals and participate fully in their community.
A key part of Community Support Services is case management. Case managers work alongside individuals to identify needs, connect them with helpful resources, and provide ongoing support. Services are person-centered and tailored to each individual’s strengths, goals, and circumstances.
Community Support Services are flexible and accessible, with support available in a variety of settings, including the home, community, or workplace—wherever support is most helpful.
