To spread cheer and kindness this holiday season, Harsha Behavioral Center is offering Thanksgiving food baskets to their staff and community members. Harsha Behavioral Center is teaming up with school counselors, case managers and staff members to deliver baskets to families in need in time for the holidays.

A long-standing community partner, Harsha Behavioral Center celebrates 12 years this month. After recognizing the need for inpatient psychiatric services in the Terre Haute area, Paras Harshawat MD and his wife Roopam Harshawat started the hospital and opened its doors on August 18, 2008. Over the past 12 years, the organization has become an integral part of the community and a resource for patients and families statewide.

“Now, more than ever, being able to provide care to those experiencing mental health challenges is vital,” states Roopam Harshawat, CEO of Harsha Behavioral Center. “The Heart of Harsha is all about people. If we all work together, we can create a better perception of mental health in our community, our state and our nation.”
