BROOKINGS – The Brookings Area Mental Health Guide is now available through 211 Helpline Center, the Brookings Mental Health Task Force announced this week.
Individuals are able to access information for all local mental health resources by calling 211 or texting your zip code to 898211. Access is also available at http://www.helplinecenter.org/brookingsareamentalhealthguide/.
The Brookings Area Mental Health Guide helps people identify and select licensed and credentialed practitioners and agencies who service the community. The guide is produced as an initiative of the Mental Health Task Force and is funded by the City of Brookings and Brookings County.
The City of Brookings, Brookings County and the Brookings School District, partners in the Mental Health Task Force, have a long history of collaboration and cooperation and are committed to a high quality of life for all.
The task force’s purpose is to complete a comprehensive needs assessment, create a roadmap of services currently available to the mentally ill, and to propose improvements to the current services available to people with mental health issues in the community.
Service providers within Brookings County who would like to include their local service or program within the listing should contact Task Force Co-chair Nikki Eining at 692-8092 or nikki.eining@avera.org.
