Additionally, patients suffering from mental illness may receive psychiatric consultation at any of our service sites, or many benefit from the more intensive, community-based services offered by our assertive community treatment team.

Circle the City strives to meet each of our clients “where they are,” without judgement or bias. We embrace a culture of dignity and respect for all our patients, staff members and community partners.
