💚🚨 Frontier Behavioral Health’s Co-Responder Teams Are Making an Impact! We’re proud to be featured on the Fourfront Contributor website for the work our co-responder teams are doing to help build a crisis system that works for everyone! A big thank you to Firmani & Associates for the thoughtful spotlight as part of the Return on Response Campaign!
Our co-response model pairs behavioral health professionals with law enforcement and paramedics to respond to 911 calls involving mental health crises- bringing care, de-escalation, and connection to resources right where it’s needed most. Over the past six years, these teams have expanded across Spokane County and helped divert thousands of individuals from jail and emergency departments into appropriate care and support. Rooted in dignity, safety, and compassion, this work strengthens our community every day — and we’re honored to be part of it.

🏛️— Last week, FBH CEO Kelli Miller traveled to our state capitol to do some advocacy for some important issues that FBH has been working on. During the visit, we also requested capital funding support for an exciting new project in Spokane, the Mental Health Wellbeing Clinic, our co-located facility in partnership with CHAS, which would expand our ability to serve our clients regionally.

Over the course of the visit, we held 7 meetings with lawmakers, including our own district representatives, members of healthcare committees, and longtime behavioral health champions. These conversations provided valuable opportunities to share our perspective, highlight local impact, and reinforce the urgency of investing in behavioral health.

Kelli attended meetings with the WA Council for Behavioral Health, where she heard from the Office of the Governor, Senior Behavioral Health Policy Advisor, Caitlin Safford, the Office of the Insurance Commissioner, and Director Ryan Moran and the leadership team from the Health Care Authority. We’re grateful for the strong engagement from legislators and remain committed to advocating for policies and investments that support recovery, access, and community well-being as the session continues.

Time to Talk Day— Today is a reminder that talking about mental health matters and that starting a conversation can make a real difference.
Whether it’s checking in with a friend, sharing how you’re feeling, or simply listening without judgment, every conversation counts. You don’t need to have the perfect words. Sometimes just saying “I’m here” is enough. ♥️
Let’s keep breaking the stigma by making space for honest, supportive conversations — today and every day!

American Heart Month ♥️🧠 Heart health and mental health are deeply connected! Stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma can impact heart health — just as physical health challenges can affect emotional wellbeing. At Frontier Behavioral Health, we believe in caring for the whole person. Supporting mental health is an important part of supporting overall health — including heart health.
This month is a reminder that taking care of your mind is also taking care of your heart ✨

At Frontier Behavioral Health, we recognize that access to care, equity, and culturally responsive services are essential to supporting mental health and wellbeing. We are committed to continuing this work by listening, learning, and providing care that respects culture, identity, and lived experience.
This month — and every month — we honor Black voices and reaffirm our commitment to equity in behavioral healthcare.
