COMMUNITY SUPPORT PROGRAM

Northland Community Services provides support to individuals with chronic mental illnesses to enable them to live in their own homes and participate in social, recreational, and employment opportunities in the community. Mental health professionals service clients through case management, supportive psychotherapy, medication management, help with daily living tasks, and assistance with housing, substance abuse problems, medical/dental health, financial matters, and vocational/educational goals.
 
Any adult who experiences a major mental illness, such as schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder, or major depression which has required repeated intensive treatment and which has interfered with completing school, finding employment, living independently, and having satisfying personal relationships is eligible for services. Services available upon referral from Sawyer County Health and Human Services and Bayfield County Health and Human Services. To apply, contact Northland Community Services at (715) 634-2522.
