Day One is a community-based, group-oriented medical day treatment program that serves individuals with long-term mental illness. Day One offers structured group activities designed to maximize each person's ability to achieve and maintain an optimum level of independent functioning.

Multi-disciplinary teams focus on the individual needs and strengths of each person to provide programming that ranges in intensity from full-time daily treatment to part-time care, which includes half days or evenings.

Day One coordinates and cooperates in a plan of care with other community agencies to maintain the client in the least restrictive setting.

Referrals are welcome from mental health professionals, families, advocates, and self-referrals.
