What is the Mental Health Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)?

The Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is designed to provide a higher level of care than traditional outpatient therapy while allowing participants to live at home and manage daily responsibilities. This program supports adults 18 and older who require additional mental health care but can maintain their everyday activities.
