Life Coaching

Creating safe and supportive living environments, Fostering connection and a sense of belonging to improve mood and health.

Lifelong Learning Supported Education

MHC offers supported education services through its Lifelong Learning Supported Education (LLSE) program, which are designed to provide the supports that people with mental health conditions may need to earn their high school diplomas, GEDs, certificates of learning and college degrees.

Mental Health Waiver

Through the waiver program, the State of Connecticut offers an array of home and community-based services. These services assist Medicaid eligible adults with serious mental health conditions with living successfully in the community and avoiding institutional care such as nursing homes. Mental Health Connecticut (MHC) is a state-approved Mental Health Waiver provider. We have diversion nurses who go out and go to the people in the nursing home and do a full assessment. They create a care plan to determine what it would take to have someone go out into the community with the services and support that they need. If it costs the same or less than the nursing program, MHC is able to get approval for the individuals to move into an apartment and receive services.
