Behavioral Health Rehabilitation Services

Available in Erie, Crawford, Forest, and Warren counties

Does your child have serious behavioral or emotional problem that gets in the way of day-to-day functioning with family, friends, school, or community?

Does your child or adolescent display emotional or behavioral problems such as poor anger management or trouble getting along with their peers?

Does your child act out at daycare or in a classroom making it difficult to learn?

Behavioral Health Rehabilitation Services (BHRS), formerly known as Wraparound, provides strengths-based, needs-driven, enhanced mental health services that give individualized support to children/adolescents and their families.

Prescribed, individualized, behavioral health services are provided to children and adolescents with emotional and/or mental illness. The services are provided by trained professionals, including therapeutic staff support, mobile therapists, or behavioral specialist consultants, who are committed to providing the highest quality care to children.

Program goals may target safety, communication, social and classroom behavior. Services are based upon Child and Adolescent Service System Program (CASSP) and are provided in the home, school, and/or community.
