Community Oriented Recovery and Empowerment (CORE):
Services help you meet your goals and make the most out of your community resources.
What are Community Oriented Recovery and Empowerment (CORE) Services?
If you have mental health and/or substance use needs, CORE services can help you reach your personal and health goals. These services used to be available through Adult Behavioral Health Home and Community Based Services. CORE services are easier to get. CORE services can help you to find and keep a job, go to school, live independently, build relationships, and increase your wellness. Adults 21 and over who are covered by Medicaid and enrolled in a Health and Recovery Plan (HARP) can get these free services with a recommendation from a Licensed Practitioner of the Healing Arts, such as a physician, nurse, or mental health counselor. Additionally, some people enrolled in HIV-Special Needs Plans and Medicaid Advantage Plus Plans can also be eligible for CORE services.
