[PC-BH-Integration] Integrated mental health/primary care services in the Gulf Region, post-Katrina

[Knox-Houtsinger, Jeanine]

Hello,

 

There has been a lot of press since Hurricane Katrina hit about the lack
of mental health specialty services available in the hardest hit areas
of the Gulf Region.  I'm interested in learning more about primary care
settings in the Gulf region that are providing some form of mental
health specialty care (e.g. specific FQHCs, etc.).

 

Does anyone have any suggestions for how I might go about locating
primary care clinical sites in the Gulf Region that are offering BH
services in some form?  (Or alternatively, community mental health
centers that are also providing general medical services?)

 

Thanks,

 

Jeanie
