LifeSpring continues to promise to serve all patients, offer discounted fees and serve all patients by not denying services to a patient based on race, sex, disability, religion or other factors. LifeSpring serves a large population, with access to over 144,000 residents through this funding opportunity. LifeSpring serves a large rural population with specific disparities in social determinants of health, mental health, and primary health that impact the rural population greatly. LifeSpring behavioral health programming includes 1:1 counseling, school-based mental health services, inpatient/outpatient recovery programs, crisis services, and services for individuals with SMI, SUD, and COD. LifeSpring also maintains active partnerships with Floyd County and Clark County jails, where they provide mental health and substance use treatment services to individuals at each facility.

LifeSpring will also facilitate case management services and collaborate with community partners to address Health Related Social Needs, including housing insecurity, food insecurity, financial strain, lack of transportation, intimate partner violence, and other needs as identified. To adequately address individual needs, LifeSpring will partner with Clark County Community Corrections and Floyd County Sherriff’s Department (operating Floyd County Jail) to coordinate transitions in care to community-based providers as individuals prepare for reentry. LifeSpring will also partner with community-based providers [THRIVE and the Floyd County Library] to meet individuals’ health-related social needs.
