The mission of Lakeview Center is to provide high quality behavioral health care and vocational services to meet the needs of the people and communities we serve. People handle stresses of life in different ways. While some meet their challenges head-on, others may feel unable to cope. Their mental health may suffer; they may turn to alcohol or drugs; they may lose their jobs. The professionals at Lakeview Center understand these problems. We offer more than 50 treatment and vocational programs to provide solutions for children, teens, adults and seniors.

'''Behavioral Health Services'''
Counseling assistance is provided in several settings including residential, outpatient, case management, day treatment and therapeutic foster care. Lakeview staff offer assessments; individual and group counseling; and professional and community education. Additional clinics and programs located throughout Escambia County and Santa Rosa County make it easy for individuals outside of Pensacola to receive services.

'''Drug & Alcohol Services'''
Lakeview Center offers drug and alcohol treatment programs for teens and adults. Various programs provide detoxification, inpatient care, outpatient counseling; residential treatment and day treatment for teens; specialized day-treatment for mothers with substance abuse problems; education for individuals arrested for drinking and driving.

'''Uniquely Lakeview'''
An important and unique service we provide to every individual is ease of transfer from on program to another. When it is time to move from an intensive care to a less-intensive setting (residential to outpatient), that less intensive program is right here, at Lakeview Center.

Lakeview Center employs psychiatrists, psychologists, licensed mental health counselors, social workers, therapists, nurses, vocational specialists and other professionals. Lakeview Center serves thousands of individuals each year. The center is governed by a local volunteer board of directors.

'''Vocational Services'''
Individuals who needs help finding employment after treatment for mental illness or who have a physical disability or another barrier to employment, may turn to Lakeview Center's vocational services. Services include skills assessment, education, job placement and sometimes employment through Gulf Coast Enterprises, another program of Lakeview Center.
