Mental Health

Community TIES is a UW-Waisman Center behavioral support program serving Dane County children/families, adolescents and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who live in the community. Our mission is to address behavioral, psychological, and emotional needs using therapeutic approaches that assure continued participation in supported community life. These needs – if not addressed – are often expressed through “challenging behaviors” – which might include aggressions, self-injurious behavior, or property destruction. Many individuals served by TIES often have co-occurring mental health conditions.

Fulcrum-All Terrain Therapeutic Services provide online and mobile services (in-home and in the community). We offer therapy, coaching, mentoring and consultations for autistic, neurodivergent and other individuals age 12 and up.
