Speaking to a Service Navigator is free.
We will listen to your needs and help connect the dots—pointing you to the services, resources, or providers that make sense for you.
Some of these services are free, and some may come with a cost. We’ll always be upfront about that—this is not a sales call.

A better mental health care system is possible
That’s the vision that two Gilead Community Services board members had for the Mental Health Resource Center.
When Fran Ludwig and Russ Hassmann needed support and care for their loved ones, they didn’t know where to go.
They both experienced firsthand how overwhelming and stressful it can be to find appropriate, affordable care.

Fran and Russ envisioned a hub where someone could call for themselves or a loved one, learn about available options, and explore personalized solutions – supported by Service Navigators who provide referrals and recommendations with empathy and compassion.
Today the MHRC support the mental health needs of individuals, businesses and organizations, municipalities, and communities.
