Department Overview


Intensive Mobile Treatment (IMT) is an innovative, creative, trauma-informed mobile practice model designed to provide treatment, rehabilitation, and support services to individuals whose needs have not been met by traditional services.

IMT participants interact with homeless services, criminal justice, and behavioral health service systems.

IMT teams are hired, trained, and funded to maximize flexibility and continuity of care for persons who historically have been poorly served.

Community Access' IMT Teams serve individuals who are street homeless or living between institutional settings and housing.

Team members work collaboratively with settings in which the participant is living and use assertive engagement strategies to proactively engage individuals in services.

IMT team members share responsibility for the people they serve, helping individuals attain housing and other personal and safety goals that may be of a health, social, work or education nature.
