What is Psychiatric Rehabilitation (PRP)?
Psychiatric Rehabilitation, or PRP, is a community-based program designed to help individuals living with serious mental illness build the skills, supports, and independence they need to thrive in daily life.
Unlike traditional therapy, PRP services are delivered where you live, work, and spend time — in your home, your neighborhood, your school, or your community. Our certified PRP specialists work alongside clients on real-life goals in real-life settings.
August Rose Health Center has been providing CARF-accredited PRP services since 2018 — the founding program that started it all. We serve children, teens, and adults across Maryland.
