Integrated Behavioral Health
Cornerstone Whole Healthcare Organization (C-WHO) increased awareness and implementation of integrated behavioral health, especially in rural areas that have a shortage of mental health professionals. Through healthcare partnerships and federally/privately funded grants, C-WHO has implemented state-wide initiatives for integration of behavioral health in primary care, suicide prevention, community resiliency, and compassion fatigue.
