The function of the community support system is to conduct active outreach to persons who are homeless with a mental health disability, to secure and maintain income, housing, food, and clothing for clients, and to develop social skills and prevocational and vocational skills on a voluntary basis. Each community support system is based upon the range of services as may be necessary to meet a client's needs:
(a) Personal assistance to secure and maintain housing, food, clothing, income, and health benefits.
(b) Accessing social and vocational skill development activities when they are available, case management, and crisis intervention, with a focus on finding alternatives to acute inpatient hospital care, services when they are needed.
