The center will focus on treating patients throughout Georgia with developmental disabilities who are experiencing concurrent behavioral health challenges. Upon opening, it will be the first center in Georgia to offer both behavioral health crisis care and outpatient services for people with disabilities.
The center, which is being built in partnership with Macon-based Mercer University and River Edge Behavioral Health, is expected to open in early 2025, the report said.
At the Becker's Fall Behavioral Health Summit, taking place November 4–5 in Chicago, behavioral health leaders and executives will explore strategies for expanding access to care, integrating services, addressing workforce challenges and leveraging innovation to improve outcomes across the behavioral health continuum.
