Homebout WTCSB Western Tidewater Community Services Board (WTCSB) is your local agent of Public Mental Health, Intellectual Disabilities and Substance Abuse Services Agency responsible for community behavioral healthcare to the citizens of Franklin, Isle of Wight, Southampton and Suffolk, Virginia. Each year, we provide access to Emergency Psychiatric and Crisis Services to over 140 thousand residents across a 1, 500 square-mile geographic area. On average, WTCSB treats over 4, 000 adults and children in ongoing Counseling, Medication, and Rehabilitation Treatment Services. In 2000, WTCSB began an aggressive revitalization plan to improve and expand its services under three very basic initiatives: Improve Customer Service, Promote Staff Excellence, and Modernize Business Practices. Today, our Board is privileged to oversee the results of these efforts, including the doubling of the amount of treatment services provided to our communities, the addition of new staff member positions and an increase in our annual operating service budget. Our accomplishments would not have been possible without the generous support of our distinguished Board of Supervisors and City Council Members and the dedication and compassion of the Board of Directors and Staff of the Western Tidewater Community Services Board. Most especially, we are grateful to those countless families and stakeholders who have entrusted their care and the well being of their loved ones to our services and who remain faithful to our vision that "The Purpose of Life, Is a Life with Purpose".

When a mental health crisis arises, immediate support can make all the difference. A Crisis Receiving Center (CRC) is a safe, welcoming place where individuals can receive urgent care for mental health and substance use challenges-no appointment necessary. A CRC functions like an urgent care clinic, but specifically for mental health needs. It provides a calm, supportive environment for individuals in crisis, offering rapid assessment, stabilization, and connections to ongoing care.
