Number & Characteristics
of MHS Clients

for the 2003-2007 Fiscal Years

Client data for FY 2008 Client employment and income Service statistics Outcomes of care How many are homeless?

Most MHS homeless assistance programs serve homeless adults who have a severe mental disability. Outreach programs and the Community Women’s Shelter also serve those with other disabling conditions. The most frequent psychiatric disorders among those who participate in our homeless assistance programs are schizophrenic disorders, and substance-use disorders. Many homeless clients have a chronic physical illness, such as diabetes.

The MHS Mobile Crisis Team serves children and adults who are experiencing a psychiatric crisis. Clients of crisis programs have demographic and diagnostic characteristics that are much more heterogeneous than those of homeless clients.

Information about age, sex, and race of clients, by program, is presented in the tables below.
