Continuous Engagement between Community and Clinic Treatment (CONNECT)

Continuous Engagement between Community and Clinic Treatment (CONNECT)

City implementation partner: Department of Health and Mental Hygiene

The city will launch a demonstration project, known as Continuous Engagement between Community and Clinic Treatment Teams (CONNECT), to enhance the capacity of existing clinics to provide a more flexible and nimble treatment model that not only addresses clients’ mental health needs but also their social and physical needs. This program aims to center communities by enhancing the mobile capacity of clinics based in communities most in need as determined by the current waitlist for mobile treatment services.
