Our Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) is a new community mental health model that provides comprehensive, integrated and more effective treatment. The CCBHC provides a full range of mental health and substance-use disorder services and expands access to vulnerable individuals. It combines and better coordinates behavioral and medical care.

It offers crisis services 24/7 every day of the year, and provides immediate screening and risk assessment for mental health, addictions and basic primary care needs. The CCBHC also provides care for veterans that’s customized to their particular needs.

In February 2021, Southwest Solutions was selected as one of five community mental health agencies in Detroit awarded federal funding through the CARES Act to become Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs). Our funding is for about $4M over two years. We thank Senator Debbie Stabenow for her leadership in securing this funding and for her extraordinary advocacy for mental health services so that those in need can recover and lead fulfilling lives.
“Southwest Solutions is always striving to expand and enhance our services to more effectively address the needs in our community,” said Sean de Four, President and CEO of Southwest Solutions, at a press conference with Senator Stabenow at our CCBHC. “Becoming a CCBHC enables us to do both. It’s no exaggeration to say this is a historic and defining moment for our agency and all community mental agencies across the country that are implementing the CCBHC model.”
CCBHCs are a result of the passage of the Excellence in Mental Health and Addiction Treatment Act (2014) and the Excellence in Mental Health and Addiction Treatment Expansion Act (2019), both authored by Senator Stabenow and Senator Roy Blunt (R-MO). This legislation established and expanded CCBHCs, which are transforming the way behavioral health and addiction treatment services are delivered across the country.
Our CCBHC is one of 13 in Michigan. For a list of all the CCBHCs in the country, click here.
