The key elements of a systems integration approach to delivery of human services are reviewed in terms of their application to services for mentally ill homeless persons. The example of a mental health outreach project illustrates the service-and systems-integrating influences of clinical case management with this population, and the ability of a “bottom-up” street-level approach to improve coordination and service accessibility for clients in general is discussed.
