History
This exciting new project began with the purchase in 2021 of a historical building in the heart of downtown Bradenton. A year and a half remodeling effort will culminate in June, 2023, with the grand opening of our new Bradenton facility. This new endeavor has been made possible by support from Bank of America Foundation, Manatee Community Foundation Giving Circle, Wilson Wood Foundation, Steinwachs Family Foundation, Manatee County Government and Central Florida Behavioral Health Network.
