Mission Statement:
New Horizons Continuing Day Treatment Program is a collection of mental health and integrated human services designed to serve Allegany County adult consumers with severe and persistent mental illness. The program is committed to the recognition of consumer rights and their unique individual needs, to the active participation of consumers in their individual treatment and rehabilitation plans, and to the convictions to encourage and assist consumers to reach their highest possible level of independence, while providing for and insuring support for safety and personal growth.

Support Services
New Horizons is designed to assist adults and their support systems in dealing with psychiatric illnesses. Treatment consists of structured re-education discussion groups, loosely structured conversation groups, group psychotherapy, periods of informal social interaction, one-to-one and/or group modeling/role playing exercises, one-to-one and/or group community orientation exercises, activity therapy and social skill building activities. Consumers are strongly encouraged to play an active role in the development and evaluation of their program services.

Case Management Services
Case management services are those activities that link the consumer to the service system and coordinate the provision of service. The objective of case management is continuity of care and service in the community. Case management activities include referring consumers to all required services as specified in the treatment plan. Case Managers also advocate, which is the process of interceding on behalf of the consumer to assure access to required services.

Transportation
A coordinated system of transportation exists for consumers enrolled in programming and ARA has committed vital resources to this task.
