Our Mission
To promote the health, recovery, and well-being of those affected by mental illnesses and substance use disorders through prevention, coordinated treatment, and supportive services.

Our Vision

Hope, Recovery, and Wellness are within everyone reach.

Our Priorities

Meridian is a private, non-profit organization with roots in the community mental health movement, which began in the 1960s, to bring education about mental illnesses and substance use disorders and treatment of those affected to the local level.

Our mission is evident in all we do, from developing a continuum of treatment services that are evidence-based for a range of illnesses to participate in our communities as a partner in enhancing the quality of life. It is Meridians goal to improve the well-being and health of our patients and community.
