IMT Team

Community-based psychiatric treatment and support services for individuals who have been poorly served by traditional treatment models.

Goddard Riverside IMT Team Logo

Goddard Riverside’s Intensive Mobile Treatment (IMT) team provides intensive community-based and person-centered mental health treatment and case management services to individuals who have had frequent interactions with mental health, criminal justice, and/or homeless services throughout the five boroughs of New York City. These individuals have had difficulty maintaining services through more traditional treatment methods and often have unmet mental health, medical, housing, legal, and substance use needs. IMT teams go the extra mile to stay connected to individuals regardless of their location in shelter, on the street, in housing, hospital, or anywhere else in the five boroughs.

Services:

  • Psychiatric assessment and treatment, including medications
  • Crisis intervention 
  • Direct linkage to medical, legal, substance use, and other services
  • Housing and benefits support
  • Supportive counseling
  • Employment assistance
  • Psychoeducation 

Referrals

All referrals to IMT services must be made through New York City’s Single Point of Access (SPOA) system which can be located here.
