Health Connect America delivers behavioral health services for children, adults, and families across multiple states, in clients’ homes, communities, schools, and clinics. It provides in-home counseling, outpatient mental health care, substance use treatment, therapeutic foster care, and 24/7 crisis response, using a trauma-informed, strength-based approach to support healthy coping and family preservation. Growth has come from acquisitions (Georgia HOPE, Pinnacle Family Services, HEADS) and a SaaS-first technology strategy that helps clinicians and scales care, with Medicaid reimbursements as a major revenue source. The goal is to broaden access to integrated, community-based behavioral health services, expand service lines, and improve outcomes for individuals and families.
