Jackson Community Mental Health Center

You’ll find Jackson Community Mental Health Center in Opa Locka, Florida. It's a northern suburb of Miami. Established in 2003, this facility that’s accredited by The Joint Commission provides an array of services, including substance abuse and mental health care. They welcome adults, youth and families residing in Miami-Dade County’s north and northwestern areas.

Affordable Payment Options

One great feature that caught my eye was their affordable treatment options. Along with accepting private insurance, Medicaid, and Medicare, they have options for uninsured individuals. After a financial assessment, you may qualify for financial assistance, such as federal, state, county, or charity funding.

Family Assistance

What stands out most to me is their family assistance program. This track offers assessments, screening, case management, and treatment for those experiencing family or employment instability. You can access employment and housing assistance to rebuild your life and promote lasting recovery. They offer these services for families in their programs as well as those living below the 200% poverty threshold.

HIV Service

Another great feature I noticed was their HIV services. Those living with HIV and their families can access prevention and treatment services. You’ll benefit from compassionate care and ongoing guidance to manage your health and improve your overall wellbeing.

Crisis Stabilization Unit (CSU)

I also think it's beneficial that they have a crisis stabilization unit with 20 beds. If you or a loved one are experiencing a crisis, their services are available 24/7. Along with assistance with reaching stabilization and detox, they provide psychiatric inpatient care as well as behavioral health and substance abuse emergency assessments and screening.
