During the exploration process, Central Florida Behavioral Health Network (CFBHN) approached our working group with the idea to create the first public-private partnership in mental health on the Florida Suncoast.  

The initial concept included a commitment by the private sector to build a state-of-the-art facility while CFBHN would commit to covering a portion of operating costs with state funding. The Academy has built its foundation on this unique approach by combining private sector innovation and resources with a portion of public sector funding.

We send out special thanks to the folks at CFBHN who made this possible: Larry Allen (COO), Mike Krause (former Contracts Director) and Linda McKinnon (CEO). The vision of CFBHN is: Envisioning communities where accessible behavioral healthcare enhances the lives of all.

Approximately 150 guests from organizations around Florida attended. All were related to behavioral health and drug prevention.

The luncheon came together under the leadership of Linda McKinnon, CEO of CFBHN, who presented Awards of Excellence to five groups who excelled in nonprofit participation. The highlight of the luncheon, aside from the excellent buffet, was Florida Senator Darryl Rouson, whose eloquence as he shared his personal struggles brought everyone to tears.
