Behavioral Health Innovators, Inc. Blog

From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful to have received the D-Y Youth Force Grant Award. We loved having the time and opportunity to listen to the students and meet with them.

We are thrilled to be a part of all of it!

The first Open House was on April 24 th and the second was on May 17 th .   Located at PIER Recovery Center in Hynnis, RecoveryBUID is a peer community where TEENS can build internal and external resources to initiate and maintain recovery from alcohol and drug related issues. Our mission is to provide a fun, safe, and supportive environment that promotes recovery, health and wellness.

You can find out flyer online for all of the details about the APG and as always please reach out with questions, comments, tips, advice, or concerns that you have for the APG or for BHI in general. We love to hear from the community and individuals just lie yourself!

The screenings took place at Morse Pond School in Falmouth, Monomoy High School in Harwich, and Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School.
