A STORY FROM OUR AGENCY:
A few months ago, Ben was caught in a cycle-moving between hospitals, the Crisis Center, and jail. Managing his mental health felt impossible. But last fall, he joined CenterPointe’s Partnership in Empowerment and Recovery (PIER) program, which provides treatment, rehabilitation, and support for people living with severe and persistent mental illness. With the right care and guidance, Ben found stability and a renewed sense of purpose. He enrolled in classes at a community college with the goal of becoming a counselor and started a part-time job. His hard work soon paid off-he was recently awarded a full-ride scholarship that will cover his tuition as he earns his associate’s degree in psychology.
