ACCESS (Accessing Coordinated Care and Empowering Self Sufficiency) Harris County is an integrated care model that addresses the root causes of poor health and life outcomes by holistically addressing the social determinants of health. Using a coordinated care approach, ACCESS Harris improves the health, well-being, sustained recovery, and self-sufficiency of the County’s most vulnerable residents by not just focusing on getting them into the social safety net but getting them out of it. ACCESS Harris County focuses on delivering intensive wraparound services to individuals in need of multiple services across the County’s safety net system through a no-wrong-door approach. Frontline staff across the County and community safety net programs eliminate the siloed and fragmented service delivery experience by working collaboratively to provide holistic, individualized wraparound services to these shared populations. Without the ACCESS approach, these vulnerable populations are left to navigate a fragmented system with limited success. Goals: 1. Increase access to mental health services for ACCESS Harris participants 2. Increase knowledge about mental health services offered to families 3. Increased access to care regarding social and support services 4. Increase the capacity of trained mental health professionals
