Since 1977, Community Healthlink, Inc. has been helping adults, children, and families to recover from the effects of mental illness, substance abuse, and homelessness.

We've helped preschools and daycare programs how to teach young children with challenging behaviors and minimize disruptions in the classroom.

We've provided early intervention to infants and toddlers with delays and speech disorders so that they develop and learn to communicate with confidence.

We've helped provide families of children with serious emotional disturbances with intensive care coordination and family support.

We've reunited families who've been torn apart because of a parent's addiction. We've provided medical and therapeutic treatment for teens who seek recovery from their addiction to drugs or alcohol.

We've linked men and women who have been homeless to healthcare services. We've helped them find housing and jobs so they can maintain a more stable life.

We've provided training to adults with developmental disabilities so that they can live safer and healthier lives in their communities.

We've helped adult children adjust to an elderly parent's fragile health.

We've helped people of all ages who struggle with mental illness to regain their health and dignity.

We ARE making a difference in many livesevery day!
