Breaking Barriers in Mental Health is a United Way of Horry County program that came after our Community Needs Assessment showed the growing number of individuals who needed access to mental health resources but could not afford them. Ensuring individuals have access to mental healthcare can improve lives and communities.
Thanks to a grant from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development Community Development Block Grant COVID-19 (CDBG-CV), UWHC is working with Coastal Samaritan Counseling Center to provide free, consistent, on-site, out-patient, mental health, and substance use disorder counseling services to the homeless, uninsured, underinsured, low to moderate-income, and rural population of Horry County.
If you need counseling services through Breaking Barriers and are not a client of the organizations above, please contact Coastal Samaritan Counseling Center @ 843.448.4820. For more resources on counseling and mental health services, call 2-1-1 or find 211 resources online.
Breaking Barriers is supported by funding through CDBG Horry County and The Duke Endowment through a grant secured by Conway Medical Center.
