Behavioral Health
Our social workers and case managers assess, support, and refer guests to services.
The Behavioral Health department is a team of social workers and support staff that meet with our guests at the Southampton Street and Woods Mullen shelters to provide clinical services, with a focus on removing barriers that keep individuals from obtaining successful housing.
