Assertive Community Treatment (ACT)

Georgia Pines Community Service Board Outpatient Behavioral Health Services (BH) serves individuals who have a mental illness, addictive disease, co-occurring mental illness and addictive disease, or co-occurring mental illness and developmental disability. The BH services are provided in the least restrictive environment and are designed to assist participants in maintaining stability and independence in their daily community living.

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is an intensive, recovery-oriented, community based service for those struggling with a severe and persistent mental illness. ACT is the most comprehensive level of out-patient care offered by the Georgia Pines Mental Health system.

Commonly referred to as “a hospital without walls,” the ACT program employs a multidisciplinary team of licensed mental health professionals to provide a vast array of services, with most of the care occurring within each participant’s natural environment.

The ACT team is specially trained to support each individual’s efforts to minimize symptoms, optimize social, emotional, and practical functioning and prevent admissions into more restrictive settings (e.g., jails, hospitals and long-term treatment centers.)

Community Commitment

The philosophy, mission, and goals of the Outpatient Behavioral Health Services are consistent with those of the Georgia Pines Community Service Board, the Southwest Georgia Regional Board, the Georgia Department of Rehabilitation Services, and the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities.

Other Services​

Georgia Pines Community Service Board offers an array of support and services to the people of southwest Georgia who are affected by mental illness, addictive disease, and development disabilities.

Referral Procedures

Often individuals are referred for services through their primary care doctor, hospital or other agencies.

A referral is not necessary to receive services. We now offer “Open Access”, meaning an appointment is not required. To begin services, stop by one of our four clinics (Thomasville, Moultrie, Bainbridge or Pelham) for a behavioral health assessment. This process typically takes an hour or more. During the behavioral health assessment process, you will be scheduled to see our psychiatrist and referred to appropriate services. You are the most important person in your treatment process and the guiding force behind all services.

Upon arrival to your appointment, you will need the following documents:

  • Georgia driver’s license or valid Georgia ID
  • Proof of household income
  • Medicaid or Medicare documentation

*Proof of Georgia residence is required of individuals with no Medicaid or Medicare Coverage to be eligible for payment assistance

*If any of the above documents are not available to you please call 229-225-4335 to find out additional documentation you may need.
