Dear Board of County Commissioners:
Whether helping families before, during, or after a crisis/emergency, BCI’s
Outpatient Programs continue to provide sustainability by giving medical
treatment for substance abuse and psychiatric disorders through nearly
200,000 client service events for Okaloosa residents.
Our programs reveal the story of success through the use of science-based
programming. Services are located in multiple locations throughout Okaloosa
County providing access and timely follow-up from Baker Act hospitalizations.
These services include:
Outpatient Programs:
1. Crisis Hotline/Rape Crisis Center/Sexual Trauma Team
2. Psychiatric Medical Services (Children & Adults)
3. Outpatient Therapeutic Intervention (Children & Adults)
4. Case Management (Children & Adults)
5. Indigent Drug Program
In an economy still under stress, our services continue to provide value added
features to all residents of Okaloosa communities. BCI gives value to Okaloosa
residents as a safety net provider for psychological healthcare by improving
lives. A key link is our Crisis Hotline/Rape Crisis Center and Sexual Trauma
Team. Bridgeway Center services are Anything But Ordinary.
Best Regards,
«
