PACT
Program of Assertive Community Treatment
Research shows that many individuals struggle to continue care after leaving inpatient or partial hospitalization programs due to barriers such as transportation, financial concerns, or anxiety. PACT, or Program of Assertive Community Treatment, helps bridge this gap, significantly reducing hospital readmissions, incarcerations, and medication non-compliance.
PACT is a “hospital without walls,” bringing personalized mental health care directly to the individual —whether at home or within the community. Our goal is to offer flexible, person-centered care for individuals at any stage of their mental health journey.
Our PACT team works with individuals diagnosed with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorders, chronic substance use, and other conditions. We believe that every person has the potential to lead a meaningful life, and we support them in achieving their goals. Our approach ensures that patients are met where they are—both physically and mentally.
