A behavioral health crisis should not have to end in an emergency room or jail.

Peg's Foundation is working to change that. Through the Behavioral Health Emergency Response Initiative (BHERi) and our Clear Pathways Initiative, we are helping Ohio communities build better crisis response systems — connecting people to the right care at the right time, and strengthening coordination across Ohio, Michigan, and Texas.

Twenty years ago, Peg’s backed an innovative idea to create a new model at Akron Children's that responds to behavioral health emergencies. What began as limited ER psychiatric services support has grown into a 24/7 annex providing a full, integrated continuum of care for children in crisis.

Over the years, that investment has touched countless families, including the family of Peg's President & CEO Rick Kellar, whose daughter received care there—a true full-circle moment.
