Program Description

A program designed to provide intensive long-term, wrap-around support services to allow people to be discharged from the state’s Regional Mental Health Institutes into supportive living facilities in the community. The goal of the Intensive Long-term Support (ILS) program is to provide quality, safe, and affordable permanent supportive housing for individuals discharging from the State’s Regional Mental Health Institutes who would otherwise not be able to successfully live in the community due to the lack of available housing with the capacity to meet their specific needs.
