This location also offers a Level I outpatient group for Spanish-speaking clients.

The Community Involvement Center also provides Level I adult substance abuse and co-occurring outpatient services in Henderson.

Veterans

One of WestCare's priorities, as we work to strengthen people and communities, is to reach out to and provide specialized services to veterans. We work together with community agencies that serve veterans to ensure that we are offering needed services and that we are providing the best care possible for the people who have given so much to our country. WestCare makes referrals to veteran-specific resources, such as the Veterans' Administration and U.S. Vets to ensure that every veteran we serve has a plan of care specific to his or her needs.
