The Western New York Care Coordination Program (WNYCCP) is a unique six county consortium dedicated to transforming mental health services for adults with severe mental illness.

"The integration of person-centered practices means a fundamental shift in goals for individuals. The goal is no longer simply stability, but recovery."

The participating upstate New York Counties (Chautauqua, Erie, Genesee, Monroe, Onondaga, and Wyoming) are currently serving approximately 3000 persons through 12 local, not-for-profit care coordination agencies.
