Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is a consumer-centered, recovery-oriented mental health service delivery model that has received substantial empirical support for facilitating community living, psychosocial rehabilitation, and recovery for persons who have the most severe disabling mental illnesses; have severe symptoms and impairments; and have not benefited from traditional outpatient programs. ACT clients are high utilizers of crisis services and have a SPMI diagnosis. ACT utilizes a team model, and the team is made up of about 10 staff with different disciplines including therapist, peer support specialist, case manager, vocational specialist, and an APRN for med management. The ACT team provides at least 3 encounters per week per client, by the various disciplines. VOA is looking for 1 full time therapist position to be a part of this team approach.

Each day starts with a 1 hour morning meeting where the schedule and day is determined based on need. The day to day duties are dynamic and there is a lot of room to offer creative interventions in conjunction with the team.
