**Title: Maryland Outpatient Mental Health Agencies Seeking Growth | Community Outreach Opportunity** I am looking to connect with **Maryland outpatient mental health agencies that accept Maryland Medicaid** and are actively looking to expand their caseload over the next 90 days. My work is heavily community-based. I regularly connect with adults through recovery programs, housing programs, community events, outreach efforts, and other local resources who are looking for mental health services and often need to be connected **quickly and efficiently**. Many of these individuals need: * Ongoing outpatient therapy * Medication management when appropriate * Continued behavioral health support * Connection to PRP services when clinically appropriate and qualified I have developed a process for helping individuals move from community outreach into appropriate mental health services quickly, while also providing additional community support that encourages continued engagement in care. ### What I’m Looking For I am looking for a small number of outpatient mental health agencies interested in sponsoring **community outreach and events for a defined 3–6 month period**. Sponsorship packages may include: * Community outreach and engagement * Behavioral health education and resource events * Promotion of your agency as an available mental health resource * Community relationship development * Assistance connecting interested individuals with appropriate services * Follow-up support to reduce barriers to getting established in care There is **no guarantee of a specific number of clients and no payment is made per referral or enrollment**. Sponsorship fees are for the outreach, event, marketing, and community-development services provided. Previous outreach initiatives have resulted in approximately **25–125 new client connections**, depending on campaign length, population, agency capacity, and outreach budget. For organizations with capacity, a realistic goal may be to support growth of approximately **25–50 new clients over a 90-day outreach period**, although results are not guaranteed. **Outreach packages begin at $5,000.** This may be a strong fit for an agency that: * Accepts Maryland Medicaid * Has immediate capacity for new clients * Can schedule new intakes quickly * Provides ongoing therapy and/or medication management * Is willing and able to complete appropriate community-based service referrals to our partner programs within **48 hours of the client’s appointment**, when clinically appropriate * Has strong administrative follow-through * Wants an experienced community outreach representative without building an internal outreach department If your agency is actively looking to grow and has the infrastructure to serve additional clients, I would be interested in discussing your current capacity, service area, and growth goals. **Dr. Alexis, LCSW-C**
