Programs and results
What we aim to solve
People everywhere need comprehensive services and advocacy that focus on mental health as well as overall health and wellness. In order to address this pressing need for the residents of Suffolk County, NY, we aim to: 1) share and strengthen resources that are grounded in evidence-based research and that serve people of all cultures and ethnicities; 2) help those facing chronic and serious mental illness and psychiatric disabilities as well as those experiencing mental health issues for the first time; 3) focus on serving the special needs of military Veterans, especially those with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI).
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Mental Health Helpline
Finding the right help can often feel overwhelming. Our goal is to make this process as simple as possible through easy access to our telephone Helpline.
Centers for Recovery and Wellness
People can and do recover from the impact of psychiatric impairments, disability, and trauma. Our two Centers for Recovery and Wellness, in Ronkonkoma, NY and Riverhead, NY, use individual and classroom-based modalities that encourage participants to identify their recovery goals along with the barriers that have obstructed their paths to happy, healthy and productive lives.
Health Home Care Management for Adults and Children
Utilizing a whole health approach, we provide care coordination and care management for people with physical and behavioral health needs through person-centered coordination of mental health, substance abuse, physical healthcare services and social services.
Home and Community-Based Services
We provide peer-run activities and mobile behavioral health supports that help people fully participate in their communities and promote independence.
Supported Housing
We host seventeen permanent housing sites, six of which are dedicated to Veterans, and provide support services for their residents.
Veterans Programs
The Joseph P. Dwyer Veterans Project provides peer-to-peer support for Veterans who are experiencing post-service transition issues. The Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) program assists with housing and support services for eligible low-income Veteran families who are homeless or on the verge of becoming homeless.
Mental Health Professionals Training
We offer workshops that respond to the needs of our professional community. Topics have included: Mental Health 101, best practices for working with Veterans, how to best serve children of immigrant families, and clinical services pertaining to children and families.
Peer Training
We are recognized by the NYS Office of Mental Health as a leader in peer services with newly awarded funding to expand Certified and Credentialed Peer Capacity.
Support Groups
We provide a safe and caring place to share through our Friends and Family, Healing Connections Peer Support, LGTBQI Women Veterans and New Veteran Moms support groups.
Food Pantries
We support Helping Hands of the East End in Riverhead, NY and Charlotte’s Table in Ronkonkoma, NY with fresh organic produce from our own Healing Garden.
