TMACTThe Tool for Measurement of ACT (TMACT) is a contemporary evaluation tool used to assess how well a program is implementing critical elements of Assertive Community Treatment (ACT).
- ACT
Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is a self-contained trans-disciplinary team staffed with a team leader, psychiatrist, nurses, social workers, therapists, and specialists, such as in the area of co-occurring substance use treatment, employment and educational services, supportive housing, and peer-support services.
- IPS
The unemployment rate for adults with serious mental illness (SMI) is at 85%, whereas most report wanting to work. The Individual Placement and Support (IPS) model is a nationally-recognized evidence-based practice (EBP) designed to assist persons with SMI in obtaining and keeping competitive employment. Helping people return to work results in system-level cost savings, and is associated with improved recovery outcomes.
