Services to help individuals manage their mental health and reintegrate into the

What is IRTS?

Intensive Residential Treatment Services (IRTS) are designed to provide time-limited mental health services in a structured residential setting. These services are intended for individuals who are in need of intensive support but do not require hospitalization. Our IRTS facilities provide 24-hour staffing and offer comprehensive mental health treatment, including crisis services, skills-building, and assistance with medication management.

Intensive Rehabilitation Treatment Services (IRTS)
Our IRTS program is a short-term (90 days or less) program for adults who are experiencing functional impairments as the result of their mental health symptoms. This program is an alternative to hospitalization for adults who do not present an imminent risk of harm to themselves or others. We operate a 6-bed facility that is staffed 24/7, and is designed to provide a safe, supportive environment conducive to recovery. During their stay, our clients receive evidence-based, trauma-informed and culturally-sensitive services to improve their well-being. Clients with co-occurring substance use disorders also receive integrated dual diagnosis treatment.
