Durham Center Access was created to provide support to individuals who are experiencing a crisis and do not have the resources or supports needed to cope. Each person has his or her own definition of crisis and what it feels like. Grief, stress, anxiety and fear may be triggers that cause a person to feel like that they are unable to cope. Issues with mental health, substance abuse, or developmental disability can also contribute to feelings of distress and limit our ability to cope with day to day issues.
An open house has been scheduled:
- October 14th
- 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon
- 2609 N. Duke Street
- For event information, please contact Lani Carey at 510-337-7952, ext. 128
