Chief Executive Officer Highland Rivers Behavioral Health Dalton, Georgia
Our veteran population is often less able to access services structured to their specific needs based on their unique experiences, resulting in higher rates of completed suicides at a faster pace. Less than 50% of returning veterans receive any mental health treatment when they need it. Peer providers and rapid response are key components to services for veterans by veterans. Join us as we share our comprehensive response model focused on the needs of veterans and their families.
