A CCBHC is a state-certified outpatient behavioral health center in Rhode Island that offers a broad range of mental health and substance use services. These services are available in clinics, homes, and community locations for all residents of Rhode Island, no matter their age or insurance coverage. While insurance is used when available, a sliding fee scale is also provided to make sure care is affordable for those without insurance or with limited coverage. If you know someone who could benefit from these services, please help them get in touch with the CCBHC intake line to start the process.
