About Washington County Mental Health Servs
The Washington County Mental Health Services Community Support Program (CSP) provides community-based assistance to people experiencing serious mental health difficulties. Case managers work with participants to connect them with appropriate resources, including programs, housing, job supports, and health benefits. They also help with everyday living needs and coordinate both medical and mental health services, such as arranging physical and psychiatric care and supporting medication management for those who qualify.
CSP uses a person-centered model that is strength-focused and informed by trauma, with a strong emphasis on clients’ well-being, health, and progress in recovery. The program includes evidence-based treatment options, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), substance use services, and a dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) program that features skills groups. Through these interventions, clients learn practical coping tools, improve symptom management, and build a greater sense of stability and independence.
The program supports a range of housing and living arrangements, including therapeutic settings, crisis housing, and peer-supported options, with both licensed homes and residences led by peers, plus transitional alternatives. Through the Collaborative Network Approach, CSP helps ensure services are coordinated and integrated across the community, strengthening the support system needed for successful recovery.
