The Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) Team, made of qualified mental health professionals, is our most intensive service provision team with the goal of providing specialized mental health treatment that supports an individual’s ability to remain in the community by identifying and addressing their personal recovery goals.

To be eligible to receive ACT Team services, people must:
