Assisted Outpatient Treatment (AOT) is a court-ordered program designed for individuals with serious mental illness who need ongoing support but may not voluntarily seek or comply with treatment. This community-focused approach provides necessary mental health care to prevent hospitalization or incarceration. AOT orders can include a variety of services, such as medication management, therapy, and case management, and are designed to ensure that individuals receive the necessary care to manage their mental health conditions effectively.
