Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic

Care for the whole person.

At Centerstone, the process of transforming clinic locations to a Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) began in 2018 through funding from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). This funding allows our awarded clinics in Florida, Illinois, Indiana, and Tennessee to provide patient- and family-centered, recovery-oriented, wellness-focused and integrated primary and behavioral care for both adults and children. Evidence shows that integrating behavioral and physical healthcare and prevention services through care coordination can lead to better outcomes.


CCBHCs strive to provide essential services directly or through partnerships. These include

  • Crisis Services
  • Treatment Planning
  • Screening, Assessment, Diagnosis & Risk Assessment
  • Outpatient Mental Health & Substance Use Services
  • Targeted Case Management
  • Outpatient Primary Care Screening and Monitoring
  • Community-Based Mental Health Care for Veterans
  • Peer, Family Support & Counselor Services
  • Psychiatric Rehabilitation Services

Mental illness, when combined with chronic physical health conditions, affects all areas of a person’s life and may result in complex challenges to overcome. In such instances, Centerstone’s CCBHCs uses a coordinated, whole-person model of care to help individuals improve overall health and maintain active and fulfilling lives.

Each state clinic location has been able to utilize SAMHSA funds to expand access to care and improve clinic infrastructure and staffing. In Tennessee, Medication Assisted Treatment services were expanded; In Indiana, a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) was set up for integration of primary health care needs; In Illinois, intensive case management was implemented to assist clients with serious mental illness; And in Florida, a suicide pathway and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for insomnia was implemented.

Centerstone’s comprehensive array of evidence-based practices creates access, stabilizes people in crisis, and provides treatment and support services emphasizing recovery, wellness, trauma-informed care, and primary-behavioral health integration.

The Centerstone Clinic in Bloomington, Indiana received its first CCBHC expansion grant in 2018, its second in 2020, and now utilizes the CCBHC-IA (Improvement and Advancement) Grant, which was awarded in 2022 and provides funding through 2026.

Through the three CCBHC SAMHSA grants over the past 5 years, the Bloomington clinic has facilitated a shift toward integrative health care (in-line with CCBHC requirements), which we, as an organization, call whole health care. CCBHC grant-funded staff have enabled the delivery of whole health care services at Centerstone through the provision of health coaching, life skills, health education (individual and groups), and general health assessments & reassessments for all clients. CCBHC grant-funded staff support our walk-in clinic (Same Day Access) through the provision of intake assessments, therapy, case management, medical record access/coordination, and integrated care coordination (both internally and externally), especially for those who are un-/under-insured. Additionally, CCBHC grant funds are used to provide hospital inpatient intake assessments, as well as intake assessments for probation & problem-solving court clients. At the administrative level, CCBHC grant staff are engaged in numerous whole health workgroups and projects, which are supporting and guiding Centerstone of Indiana in the implementation and delivery of whole health care.
