Please consider contributing to WellStone's capital campaign. Help those in mental health and substance use crisis by supporting North Alabama's only 24/7 crisis center.
Because you care. You care about the one in five individuals who experience mental illness and substance use disorders (SUD). You care about their families. You care about local law enforcement personnel whose jails are overcrowded. You care about hospital Emergency Department workers who are already overwhelmed. And you care about completing the continuum of mental healthcare for adults—and children—in Madison County.
Because you care, we ask that you consider supporting North Alabama's only mental health crisis care center, WellStone Emergency Services (WES). Please "Be the Rock" for someone in need and help us build a foundation of compassion, connection and community for those in mental health and substance use crisis.
Your gift, at any level, will strengthen our mission. Together, we can connect North Alabama children, adolescents and adults to health and well-being.
WellStone Emergency Services, or WES, a 24/7/365 crisis care facility, transformed the way we treat those experiencing mental health and/or substance use crisis for adults. It's time we do the same for our kids. WellStone is building an urgently needed inpatient care center for our children, the first facility of its kind in North Alabama. Every year HEMSI takes more than 800 children out of county — and sometimes out of state — for psychiatric care because there is no inpatient option in Madison county.
