special feature

Community Housing and Support Services

Utilizing the components of the Wellness Wheel, residents are provided with the ability to make choices that allows them the opportunity to accept greater responsibility in moving towards their desired environments for living, learning, working and socializing

Vocational Program

Our Vocational Program seeks to empower residents to develop in the four skill areas of the Vocational Wheel, thus providing them with the tools needed to become employed, foster independence and the development of meaningful roles.  Our goal is to provide a working environment that enables residents to understand and address behaviors that interfere with their quest for independence, while providing a positive work experience. 

Community and Family Engagement Program

The Community Engagement Program is designed to explore and identify mental health resources in the community that can be easily accessed by our residents.  The goal is to make the transition to independent housing a seamless process, by utilizing support systems that are already present in the community.  In addition, we establish valuable partnerships with other mental health providers, which allows for the creation of comprehensive service planning for residents.

The Family Engagement Program is designed to engage and involve family members in our services through individual family and resident service planning, educational groups, and family-to-family support groups. We recognize that family engagement and involvement could have a profound positive impact on residents’ successes while at American River and after they transition into independent housing.
