Our Vision
We are working toward a community where everyone feels connection and support, and possesses the resiliency to cope with life’s challenges when they arise. Resources are invested in prevention and crises are significantly reduced. Behavioral health services are readily accessible from qualified providers who are using evidenced-based approaches. Many of these services are delivered in community settings where people spend their time. Service providers are working in partnership to prevent duplication, reduce barriers such as stigma and cost, and apply each organization’s unique strengths for the greatest impact.
