About Us
New Horizons of the Treasure Coast and Okeechobee is the region’s most comprehensive mental health and substance use recovery agency. With nine facilities across four counties, we serve over 14,000 children and adults annually, regardless of their ability to pay.
New Horizons of the Treasure Coast was established in 1958 by community members who passionately believed that quality mental health services should be available to all in need on the Treasure Coast. From its first location in Ft. Pierce, New Horizons has expanded to serve residents in Indian River, Martin, Okeechobee, and St. Lucie Counties. More than 60 years after its founding, New Horizons continues to work hard to fulfill its founders' vision. It offers inpatient and outpatient mental health care for adults and children, crisis units for adults and children, learning resource centers for independent living skills, a transitional group home, substance abuse and detox services, case management, family support and counseling, and programs in schools. New Horizons provides a safety net for those in crisis, outreach programs to promote resilience and recovery, and community education to help our community achieve health in both mind and body.
New Horizons of the Treasure Coast is dedicated to providing comprehensive support and services to individuals and families facing mental health & substance abuse challenges. Our organization is committed to fostering hope, resilience, and recovery in the communities we serve. We believe in the power of compassion, education, and advocacy to bring about positive change.
