New Partnerships and Programs

COMPACT Family Services

A new partnership with COMPACT Family Services will enable OBHAW to deliver behavioral health services to referred clients while supporting care coordination and clinical service needs. Through this collaboration, OBHAW will work closely with COMPACT to ensure clients receive timely, integrated care. The partnership is designed to expand access to behavioral health services, strengthen referral pathways, and improve overall client outcomes, while also supporting organizational growth and enhanced service delivery across both organizations.

ADHD Testing Program

OBHAW's new ADHD testing program provides a quick, affordable screening for adults using computerized assessment tools. Clients complete a structured test that measures attention and impulsivity, and results are reviewed by clinical staff.

While not a formal diagnosis, the program offers a detailed report clients can share with their primary care or psychiatric provider. Designed as a self-pay service, it improves access to care, reduces wait times, and creates a new revenue stream for the organization.

Support Our Programs

Your generosity helps us provide meaningful experiences, creative opportunities, and everyday support for the children, families, and individuals we serve.

From art supplies and games to field trip support and playground needs, every donation directly impacts our programs and the people who participate in them.
