HEALTH<br />
ABBE MENTAL HEALTH CENTER<br />
One in four individuals will experience an episode of mental illness at some point in our<br />
lives. Virtually everyone in our community is impacted by a mental health need either<br />
personally, or as a family member, friend, neighbor, etc. Advances in the treatment of<br />
behavioral health disorders have been dramatic in the past 10 years helping countless<br />
individuals to recover and live full and meaningful lives. During that same decade however<br />
funding for serving individuals + their families has decreased. Early treatment and<br />
community based services are effective in helping individuals recover.<br />
MISSION & SERVICES<br />
Reaching out to improve lives in our communities through advocacy, support and the integration<br />
of mental health and wellness services. Our array of services are designed to encompass<br />
emotional, physical and social well-being through our integrated health approach. Our services<br />
include Integrated Health Home, Adult Outpatient Services (Psychiatric Evaluations, Medication<br />
Management, and Individual / Family Therapy), Child & Adolescent Services, Community-Based<br />
Services, In-home Mental Health Nursing, drop-in Recovery Centers and Homeless Outreach.<br />
HOW TO HELP<br />
Volunteering – Abbe Center has volunteer opportunities in our Wellness Recovery Center and social<br />

or have assisted in planning and organizing special Holiday events.<br />
Giving opportunities – Contributions go to great use in helping individuals get the treatment services<br />
they need, or towards assisting individuals served in our Homeless Outreach program. A donation<br />
option is on our website. Your support is always appreciated!<br />
