Nurturing Dreams... Transforming Lives...

It's what we do every day, with people of all ages, from all walks of life, and especially caring for the most vulnerable among us in our local communities right here in the Upper Valley and Sullivan County. Mental illness and substance use disorders don't discriminate. They impact people everywhere...at work, at home, in schools, and across state lines. Since 1977, West Central clinicians and staff have worked tirelessly to help nurture people's dreams and transform their lives for the better.

Please support our work by clicking on the online giving link below, or by making a gift of securities or a legacy gift.

We are doctors, nurses, therapists, case workers, substance use counselors, social workers, and front line responders, in and out of crisis situations. We remain true to our non-profit mission as a community mental health center, serving vulnerable people of all ages in the Upper Valley and Sullivan County regardless of their financial need. Thank you.

Bequests

A bequest is a simple statement in your will designating a specific dollar amount, a percentage of your estate, or a piece of property. Leaving a bequest to West Central Behavioral Health is a meaningful way to support our nonprofit organization’s critical mission without diminishing the assets available to you during your lifetime. Medicaid, our primary revenue source, covers only about 73% of the actual cost of delivering care to our clients. Your bequest helps bridge this gap, providing the financial assistance needed to maintain and expand services.

Making a bequest is straightforward. You simply include specific language in your will that designates West Central Behavioral Health as a beneficiary. If you have an attorney, they can assist you. Alternatively, you can contact our Development Office for guidance by calling 603-448-0126, ext. 1868, or emailing development@wcbh.org.

When you include West Central Behavioral Health in your estate plans, you become a member of the MacNamee Society, created in honor of our long-standing supporters Dr. Hugh and Mrs. Mimi MacNamee. Membership in this society recognizes your commitment and is a powerful way to leave a lasting impact on our community.

Watch below, a video of MacNamee Society members Pete and Ruth Bleyler discussing their wishes to leave a legacy gift to West Central through a bequest in their will and their reasons for playing active roles as chairs on our Board of Directors.
