TO OUR PARTNERS, FRIENDS AND FUNDERS:
MISSION STATEMENT
To ensure people with mental illness, addictions, and related challenges lead healthy and productive lives.
Over
93%
of clients surveyed said they have a high overall satisfaction with GCBHS services.
ON THE COVER: Pictured are Amelia staff who assist in the CCBHC and BHUC.
2024 was a busy and exciting year for Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Health Services (GCBHS). The organization grew in several ways including an expansion of services in Warren and Clinton counties and adding groundbreaking programs as part of our Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) in Clermont County. The best news is that we are continuing to meet the needs of the most vulnerable in our communities in new and innovative ways.
In January 2024, GCBHS added a new Behavioral Health Urgent Care to its array of services at its Amelia location. This is a new concept that is allowing GCBHS to serve individuals with increased flexibility and rapid access for addressing pre-emergent issues that, in many cases, prevent a more full-blown crisis. We are developing another Behavioral Health Urgent Care in Hamilton County as well. You can read more about these clinics on pages 4 and 5.
Another new service within our Amelia clinic is called The Living Room It’s a place for anyone who needs a quiet space to receive support for an emotional or stress-related issue. The wonderful thing about The Living Room is that it is solely staffed by peers. Peers are GCBHS employees who have a lived experience with mental illness and/or substance use disorder (SUD). Learn more about their work on page 6.
In addition, we added employment services to our programming in Warren and Clinton Counties. Learn more about the expansion and who we are helping on page 3. We are also proud to be named Best Behavioral Healthcare Nonprofit by Cincy Magazine and congratulate our Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Katie Schmidt, on her Best Doctor Award.
Looking ahead to 2025, we will continue to meet the demand for behavioral healthcare needs in Greater Cincinnati by launching leadingedge programs such as the Hamilton County Crisis Receiving Center (learn more on page 6). We invite you to follow us on social media, read our blog posts and sign up for e-news on our website to stay up to date on our exciting projects and services.
On behalf of our Board of Directors, Staff and persons served, we thank you for your support of Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Health Services!
With gratitude,

Helping people Find Employment
in Warren/Clinton Counties
Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Health Services (GCBHS) originally launched employment services to assist clients in our group homes.
In the past year (April 2024), we have expanded services to include two employment specialists on the FIRST and FACT teams in Warren/Clinton Counties. Says GCBHS Associate VP of Employment & Recovery Services, Kelly Smith-Trondle, “The expansion happened with the help of a grant from The Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (OHMAS) and support from The Mental Health Recovery Board Serving Warren & Clinton Counties. We’ve already seen what a difference it is making in people’s lives.”
According to Kelly, in the 6 months the program has been up and running out of our Lebanon office, 45% of the clients we have worked with, have obtained employment. Nationally, employment rates for people with
mental illness is less than 10%.
Alex Huffman is the team lead for employment in Warren/Clinton counties. He says, “Evidence shows working has an overall positive effect on overall mental health. I find that for many clients, having that daily routine of being productive adds to self-esteem as well.”
Daniel is one of the clients Alex works with in Clinton County. He says that Alex helps him… “when I need to know… ‘How do I deal with this? What do I do?’ He knows. A lot of stuff I wouldn’t be able to do without Alex’s help in navigating the system. I’d be lost.” But, as Alex shares, success in
I’m trying to find my niche and find a career I want to pursue. That’s why I like Alex being in my corner.”

employment services is a two-way street. “Daniel has done a lot of work on himself, with budgeting, saving for a car…he’s done a very good job leveraging resources and covering his bases. He is very independent and a hard worker. He gets pride from that.”
Daniel agrees. “I’m trying to find my niche and find a career I want to pursue. That’s why I like Alex being in my corner. I want to wake up every day and love what I am doing. GCBHS focuses on me as an individual. They treat the whole person not just the disorder. They care about helping you get your needs met so you can be happy as a person.”

Behavioral Health Urgent Care comes to Clermont County
In 2020, Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Health Services (GCBHS) took a significant step toward expanding mental health and substance use services by launching a Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) at its Amelia location. At the time, it was one of only two behavioral health organizations in Ohio to receive this federal grant. Since then, the clinic has continued to grow, introducing new programs designed to meet the evolving needs of the community—including the launch of the Behavioral Health Urgent Care (BHUC) in January of 2024 and The Peer Living Room in Fall 2024.
The concept of the BHUC is rather new and part of the future vision in Ohio’s crisis continuum. Alicia Fine, Chief Program Officer & Sr. VP, compares it to an urgent care one would go to for traditional medical needs. “When we have an urgent physical illness, many of us go to an urgent care to see a doctor. A Behavioral Health Urgent Care offers a place for adults to see a psychiatrist, counselor, or care manager for services that address immediate needs around stressful events, symptom changes, medication side effects or medication changes.”
According to Sam Murphy, Associate Director of Behavioral Health Services at the CCBHC, urgent care helps fill a gap in service. “When symptoms escalate, sometimes the emergency room feels like the only viable option. But the BHUC acts as a safety net for outpatient behavioral health needs and serves as an alternative to a local ER.”
The BHUC staff provide same-day support including brief counseling and symptom management. Just like in the physical
health urgent care system, patients receive an after-visit summary with clear recommendations for ongoing treatment. The goal is to ensure they leave with a roadmap for next steps— whether that means ongoing services with GCBHS or being connected to outside providers for additional care.
Sam shares a story about a recent BHUC visit. “We received a call from a school. A student was discharged from a psychiatric hospital and facing homelessness. That same day, through the BHUC, the student received nursing care, counseling, psychiatry, and care management services – all essential to addressing their urgent needs. The next day the student was enrolled in the GCBHS TIP program (Transition to Independence Process), which assists young people with supportive services as they navigate the path to adulthood, ensuring they have the tools to succeed. Being in TIP allowed the student to resume their education, find temporary housing, and obtain resources and support needed for success. They are currently doing very well.”
The Behavioral Health Urgent Care in Amelia is located at 43 E. Main Street. The hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. It is open to anyone 18 years of age and older who may have an urgent mental health
or substance use issue. The program is currently grant funded, which means a person’s insurance status or county/state of residence is not a barrier to service.
“At the end of the day,” says Sam, “we are building a bridge to care and helping people find the services that they need, when they need them.”

54%
91% of BHUC of clients are new to GCBHS complete their BHUC visit
Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Health Services (GCBHS) recently launched a Behavioral Health Urgent Care (BHUC) at our Madison Office in Hamilton County. The BHUC is an extension of the integrated care approaches currently provided by our organization. A nurse has been hired, and the program began offering services to current GCBHS clients in mid-January.
Hamilton County’s BHUC is an enhancement of the GCBHS Connects Program, bringing critical nursing services and expedited access to medications when needed. The BHUC provides timely walk-in access to an array of mental health professionals for individuals experiencing crises or acute distress, such as anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, or psychosis.
The goal is to provide rapid care to GCBHS clients whose behavioral health concerns don’t require emergency room care. This will relieve the strain on local emergency rooms and other community systems.

The Crisis Receiving Center To Open
in 2025
Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Health Services (GCBHS) will soon be providing services at the brand-new Hamilton County Crisis Receiving Center (HCCRC), housed in the Hamilton County Crisis Center. This pilot program, in partnership with the Hamilton County Mental Health and Recovery Services Board and Cincinnati Police Department is meant to assist the police with non-criminal calls and reduce the number of behavioral health emergency visits to area hospitals. The Hamilton County Crisis Receiving Center will safely triage, assess, treat and coordinate plans of care for clients in the community that do not seek higher levels or alternative levels of care.
Says Cassidy Lekan, VP of Recovery Services, who will supervise the GCBHS staff at the HCCRC, “The Crisis Receiving Center will be an additional behavioral health resource for the community, to assist individuals who do not require hospitalization. It is meant to provide quick triage and assessment by our team (nurse, counselor, and psychiatrist) who will then determine what services and next steps should be.”
Pull up a chair and make yourself at home
When Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Health Services (GCBHS) expanded their Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) in Amelia, one of the initiatives of the grant was to add a program called The Living Room. The Living Room is a walk-in, community resource for those who are experiencing a self-defined urgent issue/stressful event. The program is staffed with peer support workers who have lived experience with mental illness, substance use disorder, or both.
Research indicates that people experiencing stress want a safe space where they can be helped by someone who understands what they are going through. This nationally recognized model of care offers a safe, inviting, home-like atmosphere designed to create a space for people to connect with peers and talk through a self-defined crisis or stressful event.
Peer support workers help guests learn and apply wellness strategies, problem solve and support safety planning to prevent future urgent issues or crisis events. According to the Team Coordinator, Lisa Keck, “The people who come here typically don’t have pro-social support, so if they are feeling anxious or struggling with conflict at home, we are here for them. Sometimes, it’s just a matter of ‘talking it out’ because they feel nobody is listening to them.” Having staff with a lived experience is key, says Lisa who began her career at GCBHS as a peer. “I love doing outreach, so I jumped at this opportunity. There’s something about being able to give back.”
The Living Room opened its doors to the public on October 1st. One thing that makes it unique is that individuals who visit the program are considered guests. Lisa explains, “If they came into your living room, you would consider them guests, right? We do the same thing here.” Upon arrival, the guests rate their stress level and then again as they leave. Those who have used the services are very grateful that there is a place they can go without making an appointment – if they just need time to calm down or to talk to someone. Says team member Briget, “They feel safe here.”
The Living Room is open to anyone 18 years of age or older who needs support and provides an alternative place to go for support when mobile crisis, law enforcement intervention, and/or the emergency department are not needed. The service is free and available to the public Monday through Friday from 2 – 8 p.m. The program’s supervisor, Chris Miles is hoping they will be able to expand to add weekend hours sometime in 2025. “The goal would be to eventually open the Living Room 24/7 for people to have a place to go when they need it.”
Having a place to go like The Living Room is important because, says Lisa, “The people who come here, want to be here. They want the support.”
The Living Room is staffed by peer support workers (pictured above) who have a lived experience with mental illness and/or substance use disorder (SUD).
These boots were made for walking
Leah Loveless has always wanted to help those less fortunate. She thinks it may be because “I’ve been there before.” She reached out to Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Health Services (GCBHS) in October and with the backing of her supervisors at UC Medical Center, held a winter clothing (wear) collection for our clients. “I feel that every single human deserves their basic needs met,” says Leah. “Everyone has the opportunity to better themselves if shown a little kindness. That can be all it takes –knowing that someone cares.”
Leah got her co-workers in the PACU, Same Day Surgery, and OR involved. Together, they along with Leah’s friends,
family, and students from the La Salle High School Key Club, collected 93 hats, 51 pairs of gloves, 68 scarves, earmuffs, and socks, 26 coats and jackets, 8 blankets, and 44 handwarmers. But Leah’s quest to help those in need was not over. She explains, “A friend from outside of Maineville, said he had women’s rainboots, never worn, in various sizes and would we like them? I planned on filling my car with as many as I could take. But then my friend called back. He said that he sold his semi-trailer and needed to get rid of everything in it, so did I want ALL the boots. ‘How many is ALL’, I asked? He said around 600 pairs!”
have been hosted since opening The Living Room.
This is where our friends at 3CDC came in. GCBHS partners with 3CDC to provide Street Outreach Workers for their GeneroCity513 program, so we called Marissa Reed, Director of Operations and asked if they could help. “3CDC has developed a strong partnership with GCBHS through GeneroCity 513. Providing a short-term storage solution for these boots was an easy way for us to provide support to GCBHS and other social service agencies who are directly connecting to individuals struggling with homelessness and other challenges.”
With 3CDC on board, the only thing left was to transport 600 pairs of boots!
Leah graciously rented a truck and GCBHS staff helped with the loading and unloading. Leah recalls with a laugh, “It was cold, and dark, and there were no lights in the trailer but there were mice!” As of press time, almost 500 pairs have been given out and additional organizations have been contacted.
Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Health Services would like to thank everyone involved in making this happen so quickly – particularly because of how many people we were able to help. Sometimes it really does take a village!
Leah Loveless collected winter weather necessities for GCBHS clients, with help from her friends, family, and co-workers at the UC Medical Center.
