The Milwaukee County Behavioral Health Division (BHD), as part of its redesign of the AODA system and through the award of a federal Access To Recovery (ATR) grant, is seeking to create Recovery Support Services (RSS) services.
BHD seeks to develop a continuum of services that support the recovery of persons with substance use and/or co-occurring mental health disorders. Services provided by the network include AODA clinical treatment as well as non-clinical services supporting recovery such as transportation, child care, pre-employment education/training, parenting assistance, life skills training and housing. The application also invites respondents to propose additional services that support recovery.
