CHS Home > Services > Services for the Mentally ILL > Southern Illinois > CHESTNUT OPPORTUNITIES The mission and goal of the Chestnut Opportunities program is to facilitate the overall recovery process of persons with mental health challenges and co-occurring disorders. This is accomplished by creating a recovery oriented environment where hope is evident and success celebrated. Opportunities' services develop empowerment through active involvement in one's own rehabilitation goals, setting priorities, and choosing strategies to meet those personal recovery goals. The services provided support the belief that recovery is possible for everyone. Skill building classes focus on individual participation in goal setting, socialization, communication, problem solving, and coping skills development. Other classes include self management of symptoms, cognitive remediation techniques, WRAP (Wellness Recovery Action Plan), and art therapy. |
