Community Support Program (CSP)

Project Access, Inc.'s Community Support Program (CSP) is certified by the State of Wisconsin and works in partnership with Milwaukee County Behavioral Health Services.

Under DHS 63, a Community Support Program is a coordinated system of care and treatment for individuals living with a severe and persistent mental illness. This type of program is a proven way to help prevent costly hospitalizations and incarceration while promoting independence, stability, and successful community living.

Project Access, Inc. developed its Community Support Program in 1990 with the goal of helping stabilize and rehabilitate adults with serious mental illness in community-based settings. In 1996, the program received official CSP certification from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services. Through its longstanding collaboration with Milwaukee County Behavioral Health Services, the program has continued to evolve in order to meet the needs of Milwaukee County residents living with severe and persistent mental illness, including individuals with co-occurring substance use disorders.

Comprehensive Community Services (CCS)

"The case management CCS services help me identify where I need more help, and help me improve my mental health. I have more self-confidence, self-worth, and believe in myself more. My self-esteem is sometimes high and sometimes low and my services help me through that."

"I started CCS in 2017 and graduated a few years later. After my mother passed away in May of 2023 I came back to CCS for services. I like that Project Access coordinates my services to make sure my needs are met. My providers are caring, kind and professional and I would highly recommend CCS and Project Access to anyone in need of their services."

"Project Access of Greater Milwaukee has been instrumental in my Healing process through Depression and all manner of mental health challenges. The invaluable support I received as a result of being a Project Access CSP client can never be underestimated. The Power of the Encouragement factor demonstrated by each staff member alone in and of itself could never be equaled or overstated. Because of the determination and patience of each staff member, I'm BETTER, wiser and stronger. I never could have made it without you guys. You're my extended family now, and I thank all of you from the Bottom of my Heart. Sincerely, Your little Brother RAM."
