Philipstown Behavioral Health Hub is a nonprofit organization that provides FREE 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 overdoses. Many more residents struggle with issues related to depression, anxiety and addiction. Despite the severity of this crisis, local residents have difficulty finding and accessing critical treatment and prevention resources, many of which are located far outside the community.
The Philipstown Behavioral Health Hub was created to give Philipstown and nearby residents a place to turn for local access to these resources. The Hub is a registered 501(c)(3) that provides free referrals and a single point of entry to navigate and secure behavioral health and addiction programs, services and education.
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.
