Care Coordination and Peer Support

Navigation of mental health systems

Care coordination is a structured support service designed to help clients and families navigate the often complex mental health system with clarity and confidence. Rather than providing therapy itself, care coordination focuses on organizing, connecting, and aligning the various pieces of a client’s care so that treatment is consistent, appropriate, and effective. The caregiver is the designated client in this scenario.

By GAFC partnering with Red Top Wellness Center, care coordination may include:

  • Identifying appropriate levels of care (e.g., outpatient, IOP, PHP, inpatient)

  • This process is strengthened by our established network of trusted providers and programs. We are able to pair clients with vetted psychiatrists, specialty clinicians, and higher levels of care that align with their specific needs - reducing guesswork and accelerating access to quality services.

  • Connecting clients with trusted providers such as psychiatrists, specialty programs, or higher levels of care

  • Communicating with existing providers (with consent) to ensure continuity and alignment in treatment planning

  • Assisting families and caregivers in understanding diagnoses, recommendations, and next steps

  • Supporting transitions between levels of care (e.g., hospital discharge → step-down services)

  • Helping reduce gaps, confusion, and delays in accessing services

This service is especially valuable for families managing complex or evolving situations, individuals stepping down from higher levels of care, or clients who feel overwhelmed trying to navigate systems on their own.

The goal of care coordination is simple: to ensure that clients are not just receiving services - but receiving the right services, at the right time, with a clear and supported path forward.

  • Coordination with:

    • Psychiatrists

    • Schools

    • Higher levels of care (IOP/PHP/Inpatient)

  • Support for caregivers managing complex cases

  • Discharge planning & continuity of care
