Recently, Middle Flint Behavioral HealthCare changed its name, in order to create a public identity that better reflects its values:
- Southern. Based in southwest Georgia, we strive to be the behavioral health/developmental disability provider of choice for this area.
- Star. As our motto says, our light is “guiding a path to a better tomorrow.” We want to be a bright star on the horizon for individuals and families whose disability or coping problems may otherwise keep them in darkness.
- Community. Our focus is on the whole community. Healthier communities mean healthier individuals and families. Our programs promote community partnerships and outreach.
- Services. We are service-oriented. Our only purpose is to provide treatment, recovery, prevention, and educational services that address the needs of individuals, families and communities with current or potential problems with mental illness, addictive disease, or developmental disabilities.
