Acute Behavioral Health’s Post

#ForAlumni 🎓🌱💪 As behavioral health professionals, we know the value of supportive relationships in recovery. Our latest blog post https://arshare.co/OoAle at Driftwood Recovery dives into the power of family involvement in recovery, and how it can be an invaluable tool to help individuals thrive. 🌈👨👩👧👦💖 We discuss the value of family-focused care in treatment, which provides education, support, and personal growth opportunities for the entire family. From improving communication to a greater understanding of each other, family involvement is essential to healing the whole family. 🤝🌳🌟 We also highlight the importance of self-care for the support person. Just as the individual in recovery needs to take care of their mental and physical health, so too does their support network. We're here to help. If your clients need additional support, they can reach us at (512) 759-8330 to connect with our team at Driftwood Recovery. 📞👥💙 Stay connected, stay strong, and help your clients thrive in recovery. 🌿💪🎗️ #DriftwoodRecovery #FamilyInvolvement #RecoveryJourney

Supporting those with behavioral health needs starts with reducing barriers preventing people from accessing care. In many cases, effective organizations operate in a way that fosters collaboration between different experts, to create evidence-based outcomes that are proven to be effective. Caring for others many times means being honest with them and meeting them where they’re at. #BehavioralHealth #MentalHealth

📢“Mental illnesses are among the most common health conditions faced by Californians, with nearly 1 in 26 residents experiencing severe mental illness. In 2022, two-thirds of adults with mental illness did not receive treatment.” That statement alone makes us excited about California Department of Health Care Services’ new BH-CONNECT initiative — a groundbreaking investment to enhance behavioral health care across the state. This initiative means expanding the essential resources for individuals and families who need access to treatment, recovery, and support. At House of Acts we know that healing starts with connection. As part of California’s network of recovery-focused organizations, we continue to be a lifeline for individuals and families facing substance use challenge. The future of behavioral health is brighter, and we’re proud to be part of the solution.
