    Your child, your team, one location

    Situated on Northern Rivers’ historic Albany campus at 58 Academy Road, the Behavioral Health Care Center serves families whose children have complex behavioral health needs or who experience a mental health crisis, by bringing many of our existing services together under one roof. These services include screening, assessment, care management, crisis response, and treatment as needed, which allows us to better integrate our current behavioral health services with other critical forms of basic health and behavioral health care.

    The facility also replaces our existing Residential Treatment Facility (RTF), a New York State Office of Mental Health–licensed inpatient treatment program for children and adolescents. This new home for the RTF allows for more effective and intensive treatment interventions with enhanced community integration and family engagement that, as a result, supports children and youth to safely return to their homes and communities as soon as they are able to do so.
