Expanding Mental Health and Well-Being

Ulster County is expanding access to mental health care through investments in a new facility offering 24/7 crisis support and enhanced services for youth and families. These efforts reflect a Countywide commitment to strengthening behavioral health systems and ensuring timely, compassionate care for all residents.

Center for Well-Being

Located at 368 Broadway in Kingston, this hub for mental health and wellness services offers trauma-informed care and walk-in support for individuals and families navigating mental health or substance use challenges.

Behavioral Health Needs Assessment

Your voice matters! We are seeking to understand local challenges, identify gaps, and develop solutions for a more effective, equitable, and accessible behavioral health system. Together, we can create a system of care that truly meets the needs of our community.

Mental Health in Schools

Ulster County is working closely with school districts and community partners to expand mental health support for students. Through school-based programs, students have access to counseling, crisis response and evidence-based interventions that promote emotional wellness and resilience.
