MHR services are for adults with serious mental illness and children with emotional/behavioral disorders. The services are outpatient and designed to reduce the disability resulting from mental illness and assist in the recovery and resiliency of the recipient. These services are home and community-based and are provided on an as needed basis to assist recipients in coping with the symptoms of their illness.
