About John F Kennedy Behavioral Health

John F. Kennedy Behavioral Health Center is a community behavioral health provider in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, operated by Centralized Comprehensive Human Services, Inc. They serve city residents of all ages, including adults, children, and families, and they treat both mental health conditions and substance use disorders. Their stated aim is to help people become self-reliant and lead productive lives, with respect and dignity as the starting point for care. On the addiction side, their levels of care include drug and alcohol outpatient treatment for adults and adolescents, intensive outpatient treatment for adults, adult residential services, and methadone maintenance.

Beyond addiction care, they run three Community Integrated Recovery Centers, including one focused on adults and seniors, as well as outpatient behavioral health services for adults, children, and families. A dedicated Center for Hispanic Services offers recovery and outpatient programs to adults and children in North Philadelphia. For people in crisis, they provide emergency services through a medical mobile emergency team, crisis intervention specialists, and an intake and referral unit, all accessed through Philadelphia’s delegate line. Adults who need ongoing help coordinating care, housing, or other services can also receive blended case management.
