Behavioral Health, Substance Use and Co-Occurring Disorder Steering Committee

BeWellPBC provided support to the steering committee that is leading efforts to execute the PBC Board of County Commissioners’ goal to establish a person-centered, recovery-oriented system of care. We were on hand to lend assistance as their strategic plan comes to fruition and new members join.
