Community Counseling Solutions ends day treatment for at risk youth in Umatilla County

PENDLETON — Umatilla County’s mental health and addiction treatment provider Community Counseling Solutions has closed its mental health day-treatment program for at-risk children under 12. CCS Executive Director Kimberly Lindsay said it was a difficult decision but circumstances forced the move.

“It was not taken lightly,” she said. Our employees genuinely care about the people we serve. While technically it was a “decision” to end the program, we really had very few options.”
