Adult Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program
Adult Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program (PRP) at HACS is designed for adults who are 18 years of age and older. This program is designed to teach or restore skills necessary for recovery from mental illness. This program offers group and individual services to participants. Many patients report improved symptom management and better life skills after participation in the PRP Program.
HACS provides adults with structured individual and group sessions, designed to develop and enhance independent living skills and the management of mental illness symptoms.
