All over the country, communities are searching for better ways to provide mental health services for the growing number of older Americans, many of whom have difficulty leaving their homes. Without treatment, this population is at risk of unnecessary hospitalization and excessive use of emergency services. Fortunately, there are good models of community-based mental health services for older adults. One of the best, according to the American Association for Geriatric Psychiatry, is the Service Program for Older People (SPOP) in New York City (NYC). Founded in 1972, SPOP provides comprehensive mental health care for adults ages 55 and older, with a particular emphasis on seniorswho are homebound, socially isolated, or even terminally ill. SPOP’sflagship program is anArticle 31 clinic,which offers individual and group therapy and features such age-friendly services as home visits, community-based appointments at satellite sites, outreach and education through senior centers, treatment in Spanish and other languages, caregiver support, 24-hour emergency help, and medication management. In recent years SPOP has expanded its focus, coordinating services whenever possible with medical care and social service supports. The clinic is now in the second year of a strategic partnership with Mount Sinai Visiting Doctors (MSVD), a home visiting program associated with Mount Sinai Health System in NYC, to provide coordinated medical andmental health care to homebound adults. The agency is home to New York State’s only personalized recoveryoriented services (PROS) program exclusively for older adults with severe mental illness. One of the agency’s signature programs is its free peer-led bereavement support program for adults of all ages and walks of life. In recognition of its commitment to providing accessible, affordable, and stigma-free behavioral health care for older New Yorkers, SPOP was selected to receive APA’s 2016–2017 Gold Psychiatric Services Achievement Award in the category of community-sponsored programs.
