Beginning in 1964, Washington County Community Mental Health Center set forth with a small but dedicated group of professionals to provide mental health services to individuals and families living in Washington County. Today, with a new name and the same commitment, South Shore Mental Health Center has become a comprehensive behavioral healthcare organization dedicated to serving individuals suffering from mental, brain, emotional and addictive disorders. We are further dedicated to providing support and/or treatment to their families through a full range of mental health and addiction services.

Our vision is to be recognized for creating opportunity for wellness and recovery through innovation and the pursuit of excellence.
