A Special Message from our Executive Director

Welcome to Pineland BHDD. On behalf of our staff and Board of Directors, we appreciate you selecting us as your behavioral health provider. This booklet will be helpful in explaining our programs and services that are available to all citizens in our service area to ensure they get the help they need for a life of growth and recovery.

It is our goal to put into practice the belief that we must “Strive for Excellence” as we fulfill our Mission Statement:

“To develop and provide the services needed to minimize the impact of mental illness, developmental disabilities, and substance abuse in the lives of those we server and their families while supporting their inclusion in the communities of Appling, Bulloch, Candler, Evans, Jeff Davis, Tattnall, Toombs, and Wayne Counties”.

As individuals served in our programs, you and Pineland have a special “partnership.” We consider it a privilege to work with you and/or your family. Thank you for choosing us to be your provider.

Included in the booklet are: descriptions of programs, your rights as a Pineland individual, financial matters, how to access services, what to do if a crisis occurs, and other topics we hope you will find beneficial. Please take a few moments to review this booklet. Our staff are available to answer any questions you may have.

Again, welcome to Pineland! If we can be of assistance in any way, please feel free to contact us. We are here for you!

During your involvement with Pineland, you will be asked to give us your opinions about our facilities, services, and staff. We solicit your input and what to continue to improve our services as we strive towards excellence, while fulfilling our motto of “making a difference”.

Warmest Regards,

Cynthia Cone-Dekle, Executive Director
