About Us

Since 1997, BJC Behavioral Health has provided an array of mental health services for citizens residing in St. Louis City, St. Louis County and the counties of St. Francois, Iron and Washington, Missouri. We serve as the point of entry for people eligible for services funded through the Missouri Department of Mental Health, and we also provide services under some health plans and grants.

In 2022, BJC BH became a Certified Community Behavioral Health Organization (CCBHO). As a CCBHO, we expanded our programs to include more extensive substance use services. We continue in our mission to improve the mental health and well-being of the people and communities we serve who are impacted by mental illness.

Our leadership team works together with our staff, BJC HealthCare hospitals and health service organizations and community collaborators to provide the best possible services to our clients.
