Residential Programs
CRAS (Community Residential Apartment Services)...
This program provides a structured environment for consumers who need to learn skills for community living. Group homes provide maximum supervision and apartments give moderate and/or minimum levels of care. Staff is available 24 hours a day to help residents adjust to community living. Residents work on personal goals as part of their rehabilitation. Referrals need to be directed through the York County MH/MR Case Management Unit.
Supported Housing Program…
This program assists consumers to secure and maintain safe and affordable permanent housing in the community. Services include assistance in obtaining housing, with budgeting, and with building skills that enable consumers to successfully live on their own. The program also maintains an inventory of new and donated household items that are made available to consumers. Subsidies for various apartments throughout the city are available through our Supported Housing Program.
CHIPP (Community Hospitalization Integration Project Program)...
