Thank you to our partners at Southcoast Health for 10 amazing years! Your support and vision has help shape our journey and success.

This month, as we recognize National Recovery Month, we are celebrating the 10-year anniversary of Southcoast Behavioral Health. Addiction and mental health challenges are deeply interconnected and through the services provided at Southcoast Behavioral Health and Southcoast Health Family Medicine we are supporting hope, healing and resilience for adults and children on their journey to better mental health. We’re improving lives and strengthening the wellbeing of our communities by getting patients into treatment faster and connecting them with local resources for ongoing support once they leave the hospital. Looking ahead to the next 10 years, our mission remains the same: breaking barriers, building strength and creating brighter futures by providing whole-person care that prioritizes behavioral health. Because mental health IS health.
