The Intensive Family Support Services (IFSS)
Program is a range of supportive activities designed to
improve the quality of life for families with a mentally
ill relative. Family members and professionals work collaboratively
to provide each family with the knowledge, skills and supports
they identify as useful to the family's overall functioning
and sense of control. Families choose from an array of services
that are most relevant to their circumstances and may change
over time. The State of New Jersey funds an IFSS Program
in every county. Services are available to any family, free
of charge and regardless of whether or not the ill family
member is receiving mental health services.
