Introducing Comprehend Inc's New Mobile Outreach Center:
Bridging Gaps and Bringing Services to Communities
Maysville, Kentucky — October 23, 2023 — Comprehend, Inc., a leading non-profit organization within the Buffalo Trace Region that’s dedicated to improving the lives of the underserved within our communities, is proud to announce the launch of our Mobile Outreach Center. This mobile center is a significant step in our ongoing commitment to deliver essential mental health, addiction, and recovery services directly to those who need them most.
In today's fast-paced world, access to these vital services and resources can be a challenge for many individuals and families. Our Mobile Outreach Center is designed to address this issue head-on, making it easier for communities to access a wide range of services and support, all in one convenient location.
The focus population for this project is a group that struggles with numerous barriers to access traditional service delivery models. While as an agency we have undertaken recent additional expansions to our telehealth offerings, those individuals who are unstably housed and experiencing OUD do not always have ready access to smart devices and/or adequate network connectivity and bandwidth to access such telehealth platforms and modalities.
The Mobile Outreach Center expands the agency’s capacity to provide outreach, prevention, treatment, and recovery support via mobile capabilities as well as working with existing community partners serving the unstably housed population.
Comprehend's Mobile Outreach Center is built on a foundation of collaboration. We will partner with other local providers, educational institutions, social service agencies, and community leaders to ensure that our services are tailored to the specific needs of each community within the Buffalo Trace Region.
The funding for this project came from a Substance Abuse Expansion Grant through the Department for Behavioral Health, Developmental and Intellectual Disabilities.
Melissa Greenwell, President and CEO of Comprehend, Inc., expressed the agency’s commitment to this new initiative: "Our Mobile Outreach Center represents a significant milestone in our mission to create positive change in underserved communities. We believe that by bringing vital services directly to the people who need them most, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of countless individuals and families."
The Mobile Outreach Center will be hitting the road soon, so be on the lookout for it around the Buffalo Trace Region. We invite our community members, local media, and any interested parties to come and see how this initiative is going to make a difference in our community.
