About Pathways
Pathways Behavioral Services is a nonprofit corporation licensed by
the Iowa Department of Public Health and accredited by the
Department of Human Services. Founded in 1967 to serve clients
solely in Black Hawk County, Pathways today offers substance abuse
and mental health prevention and treatment services to people in
six northeast Iowa counties. With 128,012 residents, urban Black
Hawk County is home to 50 percent more people than the combined
populations of the five outlying, rural counties Bremer, Buchanan,
Butler, Chickasaw and Grundy.
What We Do
Pathways substance abuse treatment staff
provide high quality, research-based and outcome-driven programs.
Treatment programs are increasingly specialized to work with a wide
range of clients and their family members. Certified Pathways staff
members handle referrals from the Department of Juvenile Court Services,
schools, employers, Department of Human Services and other agencies.
Pathways, by providing broad-based
community programs, ensures that primary prevention equips individuals
with the strategies and tools of recovery to prevent them from
experiencing problems with alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs. Pathways
views secondary prevention as a tool to identify problems early on in
order to reduce high-risk behavior. Pathways provides a mixture of both
primary and secondary prevention services.
Our mental health center clinical staff
includes psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, clinical social workers and
mental health counselors that provide a wide range of mental health
services including individual, family, and marital counseling,
school-based programming, medication management, and 24-hour emergency
service.
