What is Service Coordination?

​Mental health service coordination is a structured process designed to help individuals with mental health needs access, organize, and manage various services and supports. It involves working collaboratively with clients, families, and service providers to ensure that the individual's mental health, social, medical, and practical needs are addressed comprehensively.

​

In other words,

Mental health service coordination is about helping you get the support you need to feel better and live your best life. Think of it like having a guide or helper who works with you to:

​

1. Understand Your Needs: We’ll talk about what’s going on in your life and what kind of help you might need—whether it’s therapy, medication, housing, or something else.

2. Connect You to Services: We’ll help you find and access the right people and programs, like counselors, doctors, or support groups.

3. Stay Organized: If you’re working with several services or people, we’ll help make sure everyone is on the same page and things run smoothly.

4. Advocate for You: If something isn’t working or you’re having trouble getting what you need, we’ll step in to help solve the problem.

5. Check In and Adjust: Life changes, and so might your needs. We’ll check in with you regularly to see how things are going and make updates to your plan as needed.

​​

It’s like having a partner who’s there to help you navigate all the options and make sure you’re supported every step of the way.
