Supporting Mental Health: Sanctuary and Community Matter Now More Than Ever
Over the past several years, we have seen and helped create meaningful progress in destigmatizing mental health and expanding access to care. More people feel comfortable reaching out for help.
However, recent and upcoming changes to Medicaid funding threaten this progress. These changes may significantly reduce or eliminate mental health coverage for many current Medicaid recipients.

Same Mission, New Year
As we start a new year, let’s review how SCG functions and why it's here. We are deeply committed to serving the community by providing accessible and affordable mental health care. With a mission centered on bridging the gap in care, SCG strives to ensure that individuals and families receive the support they need to navigate life’s challenges.
Women’s Mental & Emotional Health
In celebration of Women's History Month, it is crucial to highlight the importance of women's mental health and the significant role it plays. Being a woman with good mental health is not only a personal triumph but also contributes to a broader narrative of empowerment and resilience.
Including Women
The month of March is Women’s History Month and March 8th is International Women’s Day! It's a special thing to have the opportunity to focus on all of the incredible women who have helped shape our society. Each of these women had a story to tell and without their strength and perseverance, we never would have heard it. People, regardless of gender, experience hardships and periods in life where they need assistance. Sanctuary Counseling Group (SCG) feels that any person who seeks mental health care should be able to access it. We all have a story to tell.
