The people served by the mental health and substance use disorder systems have a common goal, and that is recovery. Consolidating the county’s addiction and mental health organizations strengthens our ability to coordinate treatment and recovery services. This is to improve our clients’ lives, and also improve the lives of their family members.
The goal is that we will maximize delivery of these health services. It means providing the right care, in the right setting, at the right time.
