Healthy Transitions And Behavioral Health Guide For Young Adults Now is the Time: Healthy Transitions Funded in part by the Department of Behavioral Healthcare, Developmental Disabilities, and Hospitals through a five-year grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, RI Healthy Transitions is for youth and young adults, ages 16-25 who are experiencing problems with moods, thoughts, and behaviors. Youth and young adults living in the following areas may be screened for eligibility: Woonsocket, Lincoln, Cumberland, Burriville, North Smithfield, Warwick, West Warwick, Coventry, East Greenwich, and West Greenwich. The RI Healthy Transitions program offers access to clinicians, a wraparound case manager, nurse, psychiatrist, substance abuse specialist, and employment education specialist who work as a team to assist participants with meeting personal goals for improving mental health and making successful transitions to adulthood. Youth and young adults will receive help with housing, employment, education, care and support for an average of two years, medication treatment (if mutually decided by participant and doctor) and interviews every six months to monitor progress. Participants will be connected to their service providers but will also connect to other participants in the program. The program is held in an open and transparent environment and participants will create their own personalized treatment plan with the help of the team.
