Preserving Hope: The Future of CBHC.
For more than 50 years, Coshocton Behavioral Health Choices (CBHC) has been a pillar of support in our community—helping individuals and families find healing, recovery, and stability. Since opening our doors in 1972, we have walked alongside generations of Coshocton residents through life’s most difficult challenges.
In the 1990s, CBHC moved into our current home—an historic building in downtown Coshocton that has been part of the community since 1906. For decades, this building has served as a safe and welcoming space for people seeking hope. But after more than a century of use, time has taken its toll.
Why This Campaign Matters
Our building is crumbling. The roof needs replaced, the exterior brickwork is deteriorating, and the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems are outdated and unreliable. Without critical repairs, the environment where healing happens every day is at risk.
Our goal is not expansion—it’s preservation. We want to ensure that this building remains a safe, healthy, and functional home for the services that so many in our community rely on.
Looking ahead, we envision a space that’s fully accessible, including the installation of an elevator to open the upstairs for future use—potentially as a community drop-in center that provides a welcoming environment for connection and recovery support.
We’re working to raise $1 million in community and grant support—every dollar is matched by our state capital grant to reach our $2 million goal.
A Story of Resilience
A few years ago, CBHC faced significant financial struggles that nearly closed our doors. Through strong leadership and community trust, we stabilized and rebuilt. However, we continue to operate paycheck to paycheck, balancing the growing demand for services with the ongoing realities of limited reimbursement and funding delays.
Despite these challenges, we’ve never wavered in our mission to serve Coshocton County. Every dollar we receive goes directly toward providing care for those who need it most.
