Where We’re Going

A Roadmap for Our Future

We are the Northland’s first and only Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic. With this, we realize the great responsibility we have to our community and the importance of having its members’ voices contribute to our plan.

HDC’s Strategic Planning team gathered input from employees, leadership, community partners, and the community members we serve in an effort to develop the most comprehensive and inclusive strategic plan possible. This plan is a direct result of that input and will guide us as we continue to remove barriers and deliver comprehensive, fully integrated mental health and addiction services to our community. We aspire to be at the forefront of innovation to ensure that the best comprehensive and integrated behavioral health care is readily available to anyone in need.

We are reaching toward a vision where we help lead our community by empowering others.

Sincerely,
Benjamin Hatfield, MSW, LICSW, LADC
