Community Support Programs (CSP) are for adults living with a Serious and Persistent Mental Illness. CSP provides coordinated professional care and treatment in the community that includes a broad range of services to meet the individual’s unique personal needs, reduce symptoms, and promote recovery. CSP is designed to be capable of providing services that can be tailored to the individual’s needs at any given time, ranging from minimal to intensive.
CSP services are only available in Mille Lacs County at this time.
Some of the areas CSP workers focus on with individuals are:
- Budgeting/Financial Management
