Description

For over 40 years, we have been strengthening communities in Marin, Sonoma and Napa by helping people with a mental illness to lead sustainable and dynamic lives.

We provide a “safety net” to our community, by working to address the social determinants of health to better prevent and treat serious mental illnesses, serious emotional disturbances, substance use disorders, and other complex co-occurring conditions.

Buckelew Employment Services (BES) began in 1986 as a Transitional Employment Program (TEP) to provide vocational counseling and job training to clients, with employment offered in work-crews that performed basic janitorial and maintenance services at Buckelew facilities, and at local homes or businesses.

In 1999, Buckelew was selected by the County of Sonoma to provide independent living services for adults with a mental illness. In early 2001, the County of Sonoma expanded its contract with Buckelew to provide new services to mental health clients in the County’s Forensic Assertive Community Treatment (FACT) team. Since then, we have seen significant growth in our Sonoma County programs, and now provide employment services and family support services in addition to our supported housing programs in Sonoma County.

With four decades of success in working with individuals who have a mental illness, Buckelew Programs has gained a reputation for meeting the needs of our clients and their families in a holistic and caring way. Buckelew Programs serves hundreds of clients in the North Bay through its affordable housing, employment services and recovery support services.
