History of This Program

The Hume Center was started in 1993 as an outpatient clinic operating out of a single room at a local graduate school. Soon after opening, the staff realized there was a need for a treatment program for people suffering from chronic mental illness to prevent frequent hospitalizations and improve their quality of life in the community. Thus, The Hume Center developed its PHP in 1994. The program was initially designed and is constantly revised through collaboration with program participants, their families and other members of their support network, community partners, referral sources, and others who have a stake in their wellbeing.
