We are months away from the opening of the Adolescent Behavioral Health Center on the campus of Central Harnett Hospital! This building will provide 16 inpatient beds that are designed specifically to help psychiatric patients ages 12 to 17 and their families. Harnett Health Foundation is proud to support this much needed project and is grateful for those who also recognize the importance of this initiative.
A special thank you to Dr. P.K. Vyas for making a transformational gift to aid in these efforts. Dr. Vyas said, "Over my more than 35 year career, I have seen many teen and young adults suffer from severe mental illness, many of which have lost their life. The problem has severely escalated over recent years and the ability to provide residential treatment and early intervention has been extremely limited. I am happy that I can partner with the Harnett Health Foundation in helping the youth of our community have access to the type of care that will make a tremendous impact on their life."
