Navigation, County of Orange, health Care Agency
Behavioral health Services.
The stigma surrounding mental illness, substance
use disorders, and treatment can become a barrier
for individuals and families seeking behavioral
health services. As with other medical conditions,
behavioral health issues can be treated. Treatment, early
intervention, and prevention services are available to
assist community members with problems in daily life.
What is behavioral health? Behavioral health
involves the ability to carry out the thoughts, emotions,
and actions that are necessary for everyday life. The
inability to do this could result from mental illness and/
or a substance use disorder, conditions that affect a
person's thinking, feeling, mood, daily functioning, and
the ability to relate to others. It affects people regardless
of their age, race, religion, or income. It also impacts
friends, family, and loved ones who interact with people
who have a behavioral health issue.
Help is it out there if you need it. The Orange County
