Behavioral Health Services

Maine Immigrant and Refugee Services has several behavioral health services designed to support community members. Though our agency has specific expertise in serving the immigrant population we are here to serve all in need of help and have the knowledge and connections to get folks from any background connected to the resources they need. The Behavioral Health Services we provide include:

♦ Case Management Services

Case Management Services for Children and Adults Case Management Services are provided by qualified staff who are either from the immigrant and refugee community or are well acquainted with the needs and cultural norms of folks coming into our shared community.

♦ Rehabilitative Community Support Service

Rehabilitative Community Support Service (Section 28) Rehabilitative Community Support is a home and community based behavioral health service. The program focuses on behavioral management, social skills development, daily living skills and community integration. This program works directly with children and their families to help them gain skills and implement routines and systems that work well for their family to put them on the path to meet their goals.

♦ Home & Community Treatment Service (HCT)

Home & Community Treatment Service (HCT) This state-initiated program is available for at-risk children who are struggling at home, in school or in the community. This service seeks to find functional solutions to behavioral issues by working with children and their families using intensive, time limited interventions delivered by a team of BHP and clinical staff.

♦ Outpatient Counseling Behavioral Health Service

Outpatient Counseling Behavioral Health Services also include individual and group counseling for both adults and children. MEIRS counselors are licensed clinical professionals who are trauma informed and trained to work with people from diverse backgrounds.
