Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic

Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic

The Heartland Family Service Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHC) are a new model for our clients in southwest Iowa and north east Nebraska, to utilize throughout the time they’re involved in our services.

Heartland Family Service (HFS) clients that are enrolled in the CCBHC are assigned a HFS case coordinator, who will do an assessment to learn their specific needs and offer any needed additional resources. Once assessed the client will be introduced to the appropriate HFS services(s) and/or community resources to help them meet their needs.

The purpose of the CCBHC is to increase access to and improve the quality of community mental and substance use disorder treatment services and provide person- and family-centered, recovery oriented and trauma-informed integrated services.

These services include 24/7 crisis intervention for individuals with serious mental illness, or substance use disorders, including opioid use disorders; children and adolescents with Serious Emotional Disturbance; and individuals with co-occurring mental and substance disorders.

Clients who are enrolled will receive an assessment to learn their specific needs, then HFS staff will assist them by linking them to services both at HFS and in the community to help meet their needs. CCBHC will include a drop-in peer center, which is a powerful resource available for anyone needing assistance to stop-in and receive peer support.

The following services are in the CCBHC model of care. To see the area(s) they serve, eligibility, and fees, click on the service below:
