Westfield Crisis Intervention Program
Provides emergency services 24 hours a day, seven days a week to individuals and families experiencing significant mental health or substance abuse difficulties.
Center for Crisis Stabilization and Respite Services (CSRS)
Offers time-limited residential services to meet the needs of individuals who require more intensive care than outpatient treatment alone, but who do not require hospital level of care.

The Psychiatry Program
Integrated with all Carson Center clinical programs, it provides the medical oversight and consultation necessary to effective comprehensive care.
Center for Children and Youth
Provides comprehensive outpatient mental health services to children, adolescents, and their families. Additionally, the Center for Children and Youth also operates TeamWorks, a latency-age after-school day treatment program for youth referred by the Department of Mental Health; and FamilyLinks a Department of Social Services-funded
home-based family stabilization team.
Center for Development

Centers for Traumatic Brain Injury Services
Provides day rehabilitation and community re-integration services for adults over age 22 who have sustained a traumatic brain injury and who live in Western Massachusetts. Central Mass provides home and community based case management, skills training, and assessments only, since we no longer have a center and can’t provide day services.
Valley Human Services
Valley Human Services was founded in 1971 in Palmer as a volunteer hotline to counsel parents who were worried about drug and alcohol use among their teenagers. In 1974 the agency moved to Ware and expanded its services to include an array of behavioral health and child care services designed to meet the needs of the residents in Ware and Palmer and the many rural communities that surround us.
In 2006, Valley Human Services merged with The Carson Center for Human Services, yet remained in its current location with all of its myriad of services.
