RW EHE Psychosocial Support Services

(PEER Support Services) are individual and or group counseling, other than mental health counseling, provided to consumers, family and/or friends by non-licensed counselors, to include psychosocial providers, peer counseling/support group services, caregiver support/bereavement counseling, drop-in counseling, benefits counseling and/or nutritional counseling or education.

RW Intensive Case Management

(ICM), including HIV/AIDS treatment adherence, are a range of consumer-centered services that link consumers with health care, psychosocial, and other services.  The coordination and follow-up of medical treatments is a component of ICM.  These services ensure timely and coordinated access to medically appropriate levels of health and support services and continuity of care, through ongoing assessment of the consumer’s and other key family members’ needs and personal support systems. 

RW Referral Specialists

include advice and assistance in obtaining medical, social, community, legal, financial, and other needed services.  Non-Medical Case Management does not involve coordination and follow-up of medical treatments.
