When someone is grappling with mental health or substance use challenges, finding the right help—at the right time—can mean the difference between discouragement and renewed hope. At SAFE, we believe that everyone deserves consistent, compassionate support, no matter how complex their situation might be. That's why we're excited to share with you our Collaborative Care program. |

What is Collaborative Care? |
|
|
Our Collaborative Care program provides 90-day, wrap-around support plans that can be extended as often as needed, so no one slips through the cracks. Through supportive methods that address the effects of past trauma and honor everyone's cultural background, individuals receive vital connections and referrals to mental health services, substance use treatment, housing, or other essential resources. By uniting multiple providers and services under one plan, Collaborative Care reduces confusion and wait times. This model ensures that each person is "wrapped" in continuous care, preventing them from getting lost in a fragmented system. |
