We are currently offering telehealth (phone and video) services and some in-person services to meet the community’s outpatient behavioral health (mental health and substance use disorders) and developmental disabilities needs. We will continue to accept new clients for as long as our resources allow to ensure that we are able to help those in need across our community. We understand that we are living in challenging times and want you to know that we do not refuse services to anyone due to the inability to pay. You can visit our website at www.fphsa.org for important service announcements.
