Mental Illness and Substance Abuse (MISA)

The Mental Illness and Substance Abuse (MISA) treatment team provides services to persons who have both mental health and substance abuse problems. MISA is a drug-free, abstinence based program. The team is particularly skilled in help­ing people with serious and persistent mental illness that also experience difficulty due to alcohol or drug abuse/dependence. Case management services are available. Individual and group psychotherapy, as well as urine screens, are a core part of the treatment structure. The team will coordinate treatment services with the psychiat­ric rehabilitation teams at the Adult Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program for many of the MISA patients.
