Ep #231 – Innovative Partnerships for a Healthier Community with Bill Persinger

Our Community, Our Mission

Join us as we visit with Bill Persinger, the outgoing CEO of Valeo Behavioral Health Care. We begin by expressing our gratitude for Bill’s work as CEO as he prepares for retirement, and then delve into his extensive career in mental health. Bill shares insights into the evolution of behavioral health care and the history of community mental health centers in Kansas. We discuss Valeo’s growth, the staffing challenges they face, and the broader landscape of mental health services.

We also explore the importance of community partnerships in addressing issues like addiction, homelessness, and mental health. Highlighting initiatives such as the Mobile Access Partnership and rapid rehousing programs, we demonstrate how collaboration between various agencies fosters public safety, improves access to behavioral health care, and makes a lasting positive impact on communities. Whether you’re passionate about mental health or community service, this episode offers inspiration and valuable insights. Tune in to hear stories of dedication and collaboration that are making a real difference in people’s lives.
