about the campaign
Since 1972, Places for People has been a leading voice in providing person-centered services to people who are living with mental health and substance use disorders. We have raised more than 2/3 of the $9.2 million we need to renovate our new health center. This state-of-the-art Center will allow us to expand our services for adults, children and families like Calvin’s.
Contact Vice President of Development and Advancement, Johanna R. Jones, to learn more.
With this new space we can:
- Serve more than 2,500 people living with mental health or co-occurring disorder per year
- Provide training, consultation, technical assistance to increase the capacity of our regional behavioral health system
- Help more people in need before critical situations arise (early intervention)
- Allow for future expansion of services
