The Hope for Heroes Easter Egg Hunt brings fun, encouragement and connection to military, veteran, and foster families.

April is the Month of the Military Child, recognizing the strength and resilience of children in military and veteran families who experience frequent moves, school changes, and deployments. This event also celebrates foster families who open their homes and hearts to children in need.

Military and veteran families are welcome to simply come and enjoy the event.

The Pre-Dental Society of UT Tyler hosted an East Texas Smiles event—right here at Tyler Learning Center (a program of Andrews Behavioral Health)—bringing fun, learning, and a lot of laughter to the kids we serve. Through a creative and interactive presentation, TLC children learned all about oral health, cavities, and even those pesky “sugar bugs!”

The Pre-Dental Society is dedicated to helping UT Tyler students become strong, competitive applicants for dental school through hands-on experiences, mentorship from practicing dentists, and meaningful volunteer opportunities like this one. Just as important, they’ve built a supportive community where students learn, grow, and serve together.

We’re grateful for their partnership and their heart for making a difference—one smile at a time. 💚

💚 People like Jessica bring our mission to life.

Congratulations to Jessica Gorham, Andrews’ March Employee of the Month!

As a case manager, Jessica always goes above and beyond in caring for our clients. For example, she helped a client who recently transitioned to a nursing facility after declining health. Recognizing the emotional toll of being separated from the client’s beloved dog, Jessica voluntarily coordinated weekly visits so the client could continue seeing her pet. This provided vital emotional support during a very difficult transition.

Jessica's compassion, creativity in problem-solving, and unwavering commitment to client care make her highly deserving of this recognition.

Our team is stronger because Jessica is part of it, and our clients are better served because she sees them as whole people, not diagnoses. Jessica's empathy, dedication, and willingness to go beyond expectations truly embody the spirit of Andrews Behavioral Health.

👏 Please join us in congratulating Jessica and thanking her for the difference she makes every day.

💚 Don’t let this happen to Becki!

This Friday the 13th, Andrews CEO Becki Mangum may face a terrible fate…

Hard time behind bars.

It seems the good folks at the Smith County Clubhouse are threatening to arrest her and lock her up unless a proper ransom is paid.

You can help secure Becki’s release by donating to the Smith County Clubhouse Jail & Bail Fundraiser. Just be sure to reference Becki in your message so the “bail money” goes toward her freedom.

👉 https://givebutter.com/2026-jail-bail-fundraiser-npxkbe

You can also arrange bail by calling the Smith County Clubhouse Tuesday–Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 903-630-3413 or 903-714-0811.

All joking aside, the Smith County Clubhouse does incredible work empowering adults living with mental illness. Their programs help members reduce isolation, build meaningful relationships, develop job skills, and move toward full and rewarding lives.

Your support helps make that possible.

And as an added bonus … you might just keep Becki out of the clink.

💚 URGENT: Help Us Keep Becki Out of Jail

Please help Andrews CEO Becki Mangum avoid serving time this Friday the 13th.

Yes… you read that correctly.

The Smith County Clubhouse is threatening to arrest her and lock her up — possibly for hours — unless a ransom is paid.

Why Becki? We’re not entirely sure.

Just last year Andrews received an award from the Clubhouse recognizing our support of their mission. That goodwill only lasts so long as incarceration is now on the table.

But there is still hope.

You can help secure Becki’s release by donating to the Smith County Clubhouse Jail & Bail Fundraiser and referencing Becki in your message so the “bail money” goes toward her freedom.

You can also arrange bail by calling the Smith County Clubhouse this Tuesday-Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 903-630-3413 or 903-714-0811.

In all seriousness, the Smith County Clubhouse does incredible work empowering adults living with mental illness. Their programs help members reduce isolation, build meaningful relationships, develop job skills, and move toward full and rewarding lives.

Your support helps make that possible. And — as an added bonus — it may keep Becki from doing hard time in the pokey.

💚Celebrating three years of SIM making a difference in coordinating mental healthcare

This month marks the third anniversary of Andrews’ Sequential Intercept Model (SIM) program—a collaborative approach that helps people with mental health needs find care instead of entering the justice system.

SIM strengthens coordination between law enforcement, courts, hospitals, and community providers, identifying key moments where compassionate intervention can change the course of someone’s life. ⚖️👮‍♂️ 🚔 🚑 🏥

At its core, SIM is about meeting crisis with care and building safer pathways for individuals—and for our community. One such project underway is the creation of jail diversion center in Tyler to provide a destination for those with mental health needs find the right kind of help outside of incarceration or in crowded local emergency centers.

“SIM is about changing outcomes by changing how we respond—together. Every partnership strengthens the safety net for our community," says Keisha Morris, Chief SIM Officer, Andrews Behavioral Health
