Optum Idaho Partners With Local Crisis Center

Optum Idaho (Idaho) recently partnered with the Behavioral Health Crisis Center of East Idaho (the crisis center) in Idaho Falls, Idaho. The collaboration involved Optum matching all donations collected by the crisis center, which is facing state funding cuts beginning January 2018.

The crisis center claims that the donations are necessary for keeping their doors open for those in the community in need of their services. In addition to the fundraiser, Optum stated its passion for assisting consumers in the communities it serves, and emphasized the importance of communities assisting regional staff in bringing about recovery and wellness to individuals . . .
