Changing How Adolescents and Young Adults Network, Gain Access, and Engage in Healthcare
About The Harris County System of Care
Families often face challenges in accessing services for youth with mental health needs. Project CHANGE has joined forces with communities in Harris County and Texas System of Care to meet that challenge by offering services and supports in a different way.
Our Program
Project CHANGE is for youth, young adults and families (ages 3-20) who have not benefited from traditional services in the past. This model may be a good fit for those at risk of out-of-home placement due to struggling with their behavior at home or in school; those who need care and support upon discharge from psychiatric hospitals or residential treatment programs; those involved with the police, court system or child protective services; or those facing challenges transitioning into adulthood.
Our program hopes to be different than services you have received in the past by implementing the Wraparound and system of care approach to improve how you access care, build supports, and take charge of your healthcare needs.
