Intensive In-home Behavioral Health Treatment (IIBHT) is the highest level of outpatient care available to youth and young adults (0-20 years of age) who may benefit from mental health services. IIBHT is a program to help youth and families have successful transitions to less intensive outpatient care. Learn more below:

As a Member of Umpqua Health Alliance (UHA), you have access to free peer-delivered services that are designed to help you meet your healthcare goals.  Traditional Health Workers are trained and certified, a part of your community, culturally sensitive, and they may share a similar life experience as you. They get to know you and your unique needs to best support and guide you in your health care journey.

Different types of Traditional Health Workers include:

  • Community Health Workers support you in understanding your Oregon Health Plan benefits, connect you to local resources, help schedule rides to your appointments, as well as help with planning appointments and more.
  • Birth Doulas are trained birth companions that provide personal, non-medical support to pregnant people and their families during pregnancy, birth and after the baby is born.
  • Peer support specialists, or recovery mentors, are people who have self-identified their own experiences with mental health or substance use services. Their lived experience has helped prepare them to guide and support you and your family through your own individual and unique experience.
  • Peer wellness specialists have personal experience with mental health conditions plus in-depth training. They help you get the services they need to create and maintain recovery, health, and wellness.
  • Youth support specialists have been trained to provide one-on-one peer support to youth and young adults up to age 30.  They have their own lived experience in youth-serving systems (mental health, foster care, and/or juvenile justice) which best prepares them to support, advise, guide, advocate, and help formulate next steps to empower youth and young adults to gain control over their own lives.
  • Family support specialists are individuals who are parenting or have parented a child with emotional, developmental, and/or complex health challenges. They have learned to navigate complex systems of services and benefits. They can help support you and your family through your own individual and unique experience.
  • Personal health navigators provide information and help people connect the different parts of their care. They’re here to help you make health care choices that are best for your needs.
