If you are like most people, you’ve gotten through life with support – from your family, your community, your coaches or your teachers. You did the work yourself, but all of us depend upon a foundation of support to pull it all together.


Many individuals and families living with behavioral health challenges come to us without a safety net. Our team members provide tools, guidance and support to build or restore that foundation of support. To ensure excellent care, our team members continuously train to stay on top of the best ways to help. This takes investment- of time, effort and resources.


BHN is committed to supporting all of our team members, to ensure they have the skills they need to provide the highest quality of care. In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, one of our generous  supporters, R.J. Greeley Company Inc., has challenged us to deepen support for our teams. They have pledged a gift of $10,000 if 100 people become monthly supporters by the end of May.

R.J. Greeley Company - Brendan

This is where you come in. Will you please consider making a monthly gift? Any amount makes a difference. You will ensure our staff has the tools they need to help build a better life for those they serve. Each team member reaches hundreds of community members every year - It’s a team effort. Together we create a stronger, healthier community. Thank you for your partnership!

"I attended Westfield State’s certificate program for substance use treatment with support from BHN. I gained confidence I never had, even while working in the field for over eight years. It was hard for me to ask for financial assistance (my pride), but by having the support available and encouraged, I plan to  continue my career at BHN and continue my  education. I am only 62 credits away from obtaining my Bachelor’s Degree. This possibility was far-fetched from my reality before I became an employee

at BHN, and for this, I will be forever indebted and grateful.”

We recently spoke with Tiffany Rufino, the Youth Mental Health Coalition Manager at the Public Health Institute of Western Mass, and a member of BHN’s Board of Directors to gain insights on addressing mental health topics. “Throughout my life, I’ve always worked in community and youth development,” Tiffany says. “I didn’t have a huge background in public health, but I did have experience working and developing youth programs and in high schools with youth in Springfield.”
