Referrals and Interventions

Based on the research findings and the principles of mental health triage, recovery plans should address:

  • Engaging staff in initially assessing emotional needs.
  • Identifying individuals who need mental health referrals.
  • Providing limited interventions, such as group discussion, for those not in need of urgent mental health services.
  • Identifying available services for families, loved ones, and community members who may want to seek assistance for their children or themselves.
