Next Steps is an Integrated Care peer and family support and engagement program based at San Diego County Psychiatric Hospital. A partnership of Mental Health Systems Inc., Family Health Centers of San Diego, NAMI San Diego and United Pan Asian Communities of San Diego, staff assist participants in addressing their self identified concerns in the areas of mental health, physical health and substance use. Drawing on their lived experience, staff empowers individuals by modeling and, assisting in the development, of self management skills; linking them to outpatient and community services and supports and coaching them in their recovery journey.  The foundation of the program is the recovery model which fosters hope and self- efficacy. Next Steps also aims to reduce stigma related to having mental illness and substance use issues that often create significant barriers to recovery.
