The Stabilization, Assessment and Intervention Facility Program is Opening Soon!
This is a correction to the GovDelivery message that was sent on July 18, 2022. The bolded language in the "What service does SAIF provide paragraph" has been corrected.
The new Stabilization, Assessment and Intervention Facility will begin supporting clients in September 2022. While the final modifications are being made to the Gig Harbor site, Tacoma will serve as a temporary location to allow the delivery of DDA's first community-based state-operated stabilization provider for adults. The SAIF program will support up to three clients in this temporary setting. In preparation for a September start date, please follow the referral process outlined in DDA Policy 4.25. The program is ready to begin reviewing referrals!
What service does SAIF provide?
The SAIF program provides short-term residential habilitative supports focused on supporting a client to reach their goals of living in their home and community. SAIF program staff provide positive behavior support principles and de-escalation techniques for up to 90 days while the client is receiving stabilization services.
Where can you find more information?
