Intensive In-Home Services
About
Our Intensive In-Home (IIH) services provide structured, family-focused mental health care for children and adolescents experiencing significant emotional or behavioral challenges. Delivered in the community or home environment, IIH is designed to stabilize crises, strengthen family relationships, and reduce the need for higher levels of care like hospitalization or residential placement. By focusing on the entire family system, we help children build healthier coping skills and empower caregivers with the tools and strategies needed to support lasting progress.
Our team-based approach is personalized to each family's unique needs and includes licensed clinicians and qualified professionals who provide therapeutic support 24/7, year-round. Services are flexible, intensive, and built to meet families where they are — literally and emotionally. Whether addressing issues like aggression, school avoidance, trauma, or family conflict, our goal is to restore stability, improve functioning, and keep families safely together in their homes and communities.

The beneficiary has current or past history of symptoms or behaviors indicating the need for a crisis intervention as evidenced by suicidal or homicidal ideation, physical aggression toward others, self-injurious behavior, serious risk taking behavior (running away, sexual aggression, sexually reactive behavior, or substance use);
The beneficiary’s symptoms and behaviors are unmanageable at home, school, or in other community settings due to the deterioration of the beneficiary’s mental health or substance use disorder condition, requiring intensive, coordinated clinical interventions
The beneficiary is at imminent risk of out-of-home placement based on the beneficiary’s current mental health or substance use disorder clinical symptomatology, or is currently in an out-of-home placement and a return home is imminent
