Centennial Mental Health Center

Background Statement

Known first as Northeast Colorado Mental Health Clinic, Centennial has been devoted to developing and implementing outpatient services to meet the behavioral health needs of the residents of Northeast Colorado since 1956. Starting in Logan County, services were expanded over the following years to include Logan, Morgan, Phillips, Sedgwick, Washington and Yuma counties.

In 1979, Northeast Colorado Mental Health Clinic combined with East Central Colorado Mental Health Clinic, which had served Elbert, Lincoln, Kit Carson and Cheyenne Counties for over 10 years, to form Centennial Mental Health Center, Inc. Both Northeast and East Central had been committed to providing the highest quality, multi-service programs possible in their respective regions. By joining, the two agencies increased their effectiveness and efficiency within the combined 17,647 square mile region and continued to build upon established traditions of providing excellent mental health and substance use disorder services.
