Manny* used his time in PHMC’s Forensic Services program to work on his housing, substance use, employment, and legal goals. Admitted to the Intermediate Punishment Program (IPP) as a non-violent offender and evaluated for chemical dependency, he benefited from the program’s behavioral health assessments, substance use treatment, vocational training, case management, and intensive probation supervision.

 

Manny achieved sobriety throughout the IPP program and has maintained it since, and recently completed both his treatment and the IPP program. He has started a new job at a plastic company, and is in a much stronger position with respect to his employment and housing stability.
