Abstract Gateway Wellness Center (Gateway Community Action Partnership) provides community-based outpatient treatment to individuals and families. Our mission is to ensure community-wide access to services that promote health and wellness. Mental health professionals provide participants with holistic approaches and evidenced-based interventions to address assessed needs. Gateway Wellness Center is made up of a team of culturally competent, diverse, and bilingual Clinicians. Our clinical team holds credentials as Licensed Professional Counselors (LPC), Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselors (CADC), Masters Level Clinicians (MS), and bachelor’s level support staff. The operational goals of Gateway Wellness Center are: (1) Address structural- and system- level barriers to improve access to quality, mental and behavioral health care, and SUD integrated services to residents throughout southern New Jersey through the implementation of community-based program in undeserved and underinsured communities; (2) Improve the quality and sustainability of health care services through supporting health care providers with training to offer coordinated, evidenced-based, trauma-informed mental and behavioral health care, and SUD services; (3) Improve the capacity of the mental and behavioral health care system by implementing evidence-based programs to address community risk factors and social determinants of heath that affect the overall health and wellness of residents. Under this initiative, trained clinicians meet the clinical and personal needs of New Jersey residents that are vulnerable to emergency situations due to their economic status and have encountered extenuating barriers that interfere in their attempts to survive. Clinicians provide needs assessments, individualized treatment plans, and evidenced based treatment to assist them to overcome hurdles. In-person and telehealth services are provided to children, adolescence and adults. Individual counseling, family therapy, and group sessions are offered. With a focus on overall wellness and community outreach, Gateway Wellness Center also provides services in school-based and recreational facilities. Additional services include drug prevention and recovery treatment, mentorship programs, art therapy for youth with behavioral challenges, Autism and ADHD, parenting and teen parenting education, and trauma-focused therapy.
