and you will be referred to the Mental Health Clinic or the center for Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities nearest your home.

For mental health services, a Mental Health Professional, to determine if you are eligible for services, will ask you several important questions.  If you meet eligibility criteria, you will be scheduled for a face-to-face appointment with a Licensed Mental Health Professional.  At that appointment, you will be given a thorough mental health assessment.  Using the information gathered in that assessment, you and the Licensed Mental Health Professional will determine your treatment needs, goals and interventions, you will employ to help you to attain your treatment goals.

For IDD services, you will speak with a IDD intake worker who will schedule an intake appointment with you, either at your home or at the center.  At the intake appointment, the Intake worker will ask you many questions to determine your needs.  Following this appointment, an appointment will be made with a psychologist who will test the individual to determine the individual's intellectual capacity and adaptive functioning.  If the individual is determined to meet eligibility criteria to receive IDD services, a service coordinator is assigned and the treatment planning process is initiated.

As with all health care services, there is usually a waiting time between the time you call for service and the actual date you are seen.  For mental health services, which are not of a crisis nature, individuals are usually seen within ten(10) working days of the request for service.  For IDD services the individual will be seen within thirty(30) days of request for service.
