JCS offers a Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program (PRP) that helps people with chronic mental illness maintain or improve their independence, social living skills, and functioning at home and in the community.

One-on-one and group support is provided to help individuals maximize their independence and to prevent relapse or re-hospitalization.

Psychiatric Rehabilitation Counselors teach, model and reinforce skills of daily living, including:

• Keeping an orderly home
• Balancing a checkbook
• Planning healthy meals
• Shopping for groceries
• Maintaining a daily activity schedule
• Recognizing early signs of a mental health crisis
• Managing medications
• Keeping appointments
• Accessing medical services and benefit programs
• Practicing good hygiene

The Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program is accredited by the Council on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Services (CARF) and licensed by the State of Maryland
