The Highland Rivers Foundation supports the work of Highland Rivers Behavioral Health across its 13-county service area. We love the new logo!
We are excited for our new name and logo to start being visible in the communities we serve. The former Haralson Behavioral Health Services agency consolidated with Highland Rivers Behavioral Health earlier this year, and a new sign was recently put in place at the clinic on Temple Road in Bremen. The clinic still provides outpatient mental health services for children, adults and families who are uninsured, underinsured or have Medicaid or Medicare, and a sliding fee scale is available to those who qualify. With the consolidation of both Haralson and Cobb counties, Highland Rivers Behavioral Health is the largest community service board in Georgia.
