Skyland Trail Rollins Campus in Brookhaven, Georgia is a nonprofit mental health treatment organization offering transitional housing with psychiatric treatment and integrated medical care. For over 30 years, the organization has provided evidence-based treatment programs designed to support individuals with mental illness through graduated levels of support on their recovery journey.
The transitional housing program operates at Skyland Trail North, which includes 13 two-bedroom apartments where clients live semi-independently with moderate staff support. Residents have private bedrooms and share bathrooms and living areas with another client. The campus features community living areas, a dining room, kitchen, and gardens. Clients may remain in transitional housing for up to one year after graduating from intensive programs, provided they continue to meet engagement and activity requirements.
Weekly visits from an independence coach help transitional clients adjust to independent living, manage medications, and address practical matters such as bill paying, transportation planning, and community resource access. Clients can also enroll in outpatient programs that provide socialization opportunities through support groups, book clubs, art and music lessons, group fitness and recreation, and community outings.
Admission to the program is voluntary and occurs through referral from a mental health professional or organization, as well as through self and family referrals. The organization notes that space in transitional housing is limited and that clients with dual diagnosis or substance use history are referred to third-party recovery residences or sober living communities. Skyland Trail also emphasizes education as part of its mission, offering learning opportunities for professionals, families, and community members about mental health and psychiatric treatment.
