That’s why, for more than fifty years, we have been the leader in treating
people with mental health disorders, substance use challenges, and intellectual
and developmental disabilities. Every day, we work with children and adults
across Bexar County to provide counseling, resources, and the support they need
to make life better. Whether it’s people struggling with addiction, or providing
support and therapy to people with mental health conditions and/or other
intellectual and developmental disabilities, The Center is committed to changing
lives, restoring families and producing healthier communities one person at a
time. We know that treatment works and recovery is possible. Our skilled and
compassionate team helps people find the solutions they need to live
independent, productive lives. At CHCS, we are trauma-informed, person-centered
care. CHCS is committed to clinical excellence and proud to be a Certified
Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) delivering integrated care to
children, adults and families emphasizing recovery, trauma-informed care, and
person and family centered treatment. CHCS firmly believes that this new model
of improved and expanded access to care will have a positive impact on the lives
of the consumers we serve and their loved ones. Trauma stemming as far back as
childhood is a near universal experience for people living with mental health
challenges and substance use disorders. By addressing this trauma through Trauma
Informed Care (TIC), CHCS is improving the quality and impact of services, and
enhancing consumer engagement by ensuring environments and services are both
welcoming and engaging for consumers and staff. If you or a loved one is
experiencing a mental health condition or substance use challenge, YOU ARE NOT
ALONE! The Center for Health Care Services can help.
