The Philipstown Hub

Located at 5 Stone Street in the Village of Cold Spring, the Hub provides Philipstown residents with a place within our community to access programs, services and education related to behavioral health and addiction. We encourage all members of the community to stop in and learn more about the Hub.

Mental Health and Addiction Assistance

Through the Hub, Philipstown residents can access:

  • Information on treatment and recovery resources

  • Guidance and support for families

  • Direct referrals to service providers

At the Hub we have Care Coordinators on staff available during listed office hours and by appointment to meet with individuals and families.

Family Support

The Hub runs parenting programs that assist and support parents trying to figure out the best ways to support their children as they advance through various life stages and changes, or struggle with behavioral health and addiction concerns.

Mental Health First Aid Training

Throughout the year, the Hub hosts Mental Health First Aid Sessions for the general public and for specific groups like teachers, first responders and others. These classes, which are run by MHFA certified instructor, teach non-professionals to identify the signs and symptoms of mental health distress. These sessions save lives by empowering members of our community to look out for each other.

Educational Programs

One of the Hub’s main missions is to educate the community about issues of behavioral health and addiction. To do so, we are active on social media via:

Within the community, the Hub partners with local school districts to provide in-school prevention programs, and classes for students at the Hub’s office. The Hub will also partner with local emergency responders to jointly develop awareness campaigns that will use statistics on behavioral health and addiction to shine a spotlight on these issues with school groups and the entire Philipstown community.

Events to Create Awareness and Reduce Stigma

At the Hub’s office and other venues, the Hub hosts community events that raise awareness and help to de-stigmatize issues of mental health and addiction. For example, the Hub is continuing the work of our local Philipstown Coalition to bring events like Overdose Awareness Day to our community. Check our website throughout the year for an updated calendar of events.
