Individual Placement and Support (IPS) is a behavioral health employment service that helps individuals with serious mental illnesses achieve competitive employment goals.
An IPS team is staffed with a team lead and employment specialists who operate as an employment unit. North Carolina added an employment peer mentor(s), a program assistant, and a benefits counselor to the employment team. Evidence-based practice topics relevant to IPS are listed below. This list is not exhaustive, so additional resources, links, articles, and handouts will be added over time.
We welcome submissions of items you think would be helpful in the practice of high-fidelity IPS to help us grow this resource library. We also welcome submission of upcoming trainings, conferences, and events that are relevant to IPS and/or any one of these topics.
Send your submissions to bestpractices@med.unc.edu.
