For our patients and their families, this means caring for the whole person with more specialized staff, and more resources to address their needs. Our partnership creates a stronger community-based behavioral health system to offer care that reaches patients where they are most comfortable to receive services — not just in a hospital or behavioral health center, but in primary care clinics, schools, offices and at home.

Navos is located in King County, and provides a broad continuum of care to transform the quality of life for children, young people and adults vulnerable to mental illness and substance use disorders.
