NEW INITIATIVE
Aspire Behavioral Health in Collaboration with Albany Police Department
The REACH program is a crisis intervention program that responds to mental health calls to the 911 system. The program is designed to reduce recidivism, connect individuals to resources, provide follow-ups after crisis, advocacy, and pair law enforcement with mental health professionals.
Community Service Boards (CSBs) were set up by the state to provide direct and immediate assistance to those requiring help. Aspire is one of 27 agencies created by the state of Georgia to provide a safety net of care for behavioral health and developmental disabilities. If you or a family member needs access to supports for mental health, developmental disability, or substance-abuse services, find the nearest Community Service Board (CSB) that can assist or provide a referral. As a CSB, Aspire provides services to those in Southwest Georgia.
