PACT serves individuals with severe and persistent mental illness who also experience difficulties with daily living activities. PACT services are delivered by a group of transdisciplinary mental health staff who work as a team and provide the majority of the treatment, rehabilitation, and support services consumers need to achieve their goals. The PACT team is mobile and delivers services in community locations to enable each consumer to find and live in their own residence and find and maintain work in community jobs rather than expecting the consumer to come to the program.
