BHF is proud funding partner for the Stride Center, one of the first facilities of its kind in the state of Indiana. The 24-hour crisis diversion center functions as a de-escalation place for people who are experiencing a crisis with mental health or substance use disorder, rather than jail or the emergency room.

Watch the ribbon cutting from July 20th to see BHF President and CEO Jon Barada emcee along with remarks from local organizations who have made this new space possible.
