Mission Our mission is to strengthen Alaska communities and improve the lives of our clients by delivering exceptional behavioral healthcare services.
Description We believe all Alaskans, with all mental health and addiction needs should have access to the best possible care. We are proud to be part of a dedicated team committed to ending the stigma around mental health and changing the lives of our clients for the better. We are a Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic and a partner of the National Child Traumatic Stress Network.
We serve children and adults who experience a wide range of mental health issues, including children who experience severe emotional disturbance and adults with severe mental illness, with or without co-occurring substance use. Every day there are stories of children and adults getting better and overcoming the impact of mental illness on their lives. Recovery is possible.
In addition to providing direct care supports for individuals of any age, Alaska Behavioral Health staff and volunteers join with the individuals who choose our programs to advocate for fair and equitable treatment. The stigma about mental illness and addiction is real and the road to recovery is more challenging due to general misconceptions and prejudices. Our Board of Directors, staff, volunteers and consumers are committed to ending the stigma and celebrating the contributions of all Alaska residents.
