Our Programs

Housing: 

Mesa & Gray House:   In these programs, clients seek to achieve their highest level of independence in an environment that is supportive and consistent.  They may remain at these houses as long as they are receiving benefit from the services provided and they are able to abide by the rules. 

 Hudson & Jolly House:  Provides a residential treatment program in a group home setting for clients that suffer from chronic mental illness and addictive illnesses. In these programs, a client is encouraged to work through an individualized program and achieve greater independence in 18 months – 2 years. The ultimate goal is graduation to more independent living at that time.  

 Shelter Plus Care:  Provides an unsupervised, subsidized apartment program with weekly program and participation requirements.  Active case management is required. 

Concha Apartments: Unsupervised, subsidized rental apartments managed by TLS.  Case management is not required but may be recommended.  Some single room apartments and some double occupancy apartments.  Unlimited length of stay.

Other Critical Services: 

Case Management:  Case Management offers individualized treatment by a client advocate.  Case Managers identifies needed support systems in the community such as physicians, psychiatrists, and families, and then works with the individual to access those support systems.  A yearly treatment plan is developed with the consumer to identify rehabilitation goals and is updated once a quarter to monitor progress.  Required by anyone in the Group Homes or Shelter Plus Care; also available for those living independently.

Psychosocial Rehabilitation (PSR): Individual and group rehabilitation programs designed to enhance life management and interpersonal skills, teach symptom and anger management, and develop creative and expressive abilities while increasing socialization, community and peer supports. 

Financial Management:  TLS offers financial management to clients who have difficulty maintaining a budget on a limited income.  This service is required for all residents in the Group Homes. 

Therapy:  Individual, group, and family therapy sessions are available to TLS clients through a team of counselors and social workers.  Therapists work with specific houses and programs so that services may best be tailored to client needs.
