Make A difference

Preferred Behavioral Health Group (PBHG) is a non-profit organization committed to promoting mental health and providing addiction treatment services to the community. We believe that access to quality care for those struggling with mental health and substance use disorders is essential, and donations are crucial to our mission.

With your donation, PBHG can expand its reach and serve more individuals and families in need. Your contribution can help us hire more therapists, provide training for our staff, and improve our facilities to ensure that we offer the best possible care. It can also help us develop new programs that address emerging needs in our community.

When you donate to PBHG, you are investing in the health and well-being of our community. Together, we can break the stigma surrounding mental illness and addiction and provide individuals with the care they need to achieve long-term recovery. Your donation, no matter how big or small can make a real difference in the lives of those who are struggling with mental health and addiction issues.

Their stories tell our story.

“When I joined LifeSet, I was timid and quiet and hid in back corners hiding from the world. Today I am back to being confident and I am looking forward to my next adventure. My counselor helped me every step of the way.”

“SAIL has made me feel better in my own skin. My counselor did everything in her power to make me feel safe, and she will always be a role model for me.”

“I appreciate all the support from PBHG over the years, and now getting the extra support for the last few years during the pandemic from the ICMS program has helped me so much!"

“I am so grateful; if I didn’t have Preferred in my life, I don’t know where I’d be. Everyone is beyond amazing and has hearts of gold.”

“The staff are a blessing for individuals as myself, and I really hope they continue to provide these services to the next hopeless person suffering and seeking help.”

Marvin received support and guidance from our STAR program for a substance use disorder in 2018 and 2019, and succeeded so well that he is now a certified Peer Recovery Specialist in that program, helping others as he was helped. “I am where I need to be, learning to forgive myself, guiding others, and looking forward to my future.”

“In the School Based Youth Services Program, I made a lot of friends and connections; it prepared me and taught me how to manage the panic and anxiety better. I learned that I can push through, no matter what. The program is invaluable – an amazing program with people that care."
