Philipstown Behavioral Health Hub is a nonprofit organization that provides LOCAL access to behavioral health and addiction resources in Philipstown, New York.
Over the past decade, the town of Philipstown, New York, has lost many lives to fatal overdose. Many more residents struggle with issues related to depression, anxiety and addiction. Despite the severity of this crisis, Philipstown residents have difficulty finding and accessing critical treatment and prevention resources, many of which are located outside the community.
The Philipstown Behavioral Health Hub was created to give Philipstown residents a place to turn for local access to these resources. The Hub is a registered 501(c)(3) that provides a single point of entry to behavioral health and addiction programs, services and education within Philipstown.
WE do this by:
Coordinating resources among service providers, to ensure that our residents can get the help they need and no one slips through the cracks.
Hosting events to educate the community, raise awareness, and reduce stigma associated with issues of mental health and addiction.
Partnering with local school districts, businesses, law enforcement, medical providers and other community sectors to create innovative programming, like working towards a treatment-court model in Philipstown Court.
