ACT Center of Indiana
Permanent URI for this community
In the summer of 2001, Indiana Division of Mental Health and Addiction (DMHA) launched an initiative to create Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) teams in Indiana. To help support that effort, DMHA funded a technical assistance center, the ACT Center of Indiana, which began as a collaboration of the Department of Psychology at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) and Adult & Child Mental Health Center of Indianapolis. Our administrative headquarters are located at the Richard L. Roudebush VA Medical Center as part of the Center of Excellence on Implementing Evidence-Based Practices. Our academic partners also now include the School of Social Work at IUPUI, the Center for Health Policy, and the Indiana University Sociology Department.
