POSITION SUMMARY

Community Support is a core service at Community Connections.

The heart of these services is a rehabilitative therapeutic relationship with   each consumer. Our goal is to understand the full person, with all their strengths, resources, and challenges. Mental Health is our central focus, but we fully understand that circumstances of housing, addiction, physical health, financial resources, and supportive relationships influence mental health both positively and negatively. The understanding that we develop in collaboration with our consumers supports action steps that are detailed in the treatment plan.
