CCMHC Day Treatment Program

Education and Treatment for children in the classroom.

Day treatment is a one to two-year program for children who, because of their mental health concerns, are unable to be successful in a regular classroom setting.

Our day treatment team provides a combination of education and mental health treatment so children can build skills that will help them return to and thrive at their community school.

Casual positions require daytime availability.  This is an on-call position and at times will require replacing staff with little to no notice.

• A broad knowledge of the principles of treatment, the developmental and care needs of children and family dynamics.

• Awareness, knowledge, and ability to deliver culturally safe services.

• Experience in a school setting preferred.

• Training in the Collaborative Problem Solving approach considered an asset.
