June is Pride Month

At the Brien Center, we believe that everyone deserves to feel seen, respected, supported, and valued.

Pride Month is a time to celebrate the strength, resilience, and contributions of LGBTQ+ individuals while recognizing the importance of creating communities where everyone can thrive.

We remain committed to fostering an inclusive environment for the people we serve, our employees, and our community.

Because mental health care is for everyone.

In Loving Memory of Patricia Brien
Honoring a legacy of kindness and community.

The Brien Center extends its heartfelt condolences on the passing of Patricia Brien, beloved wife of Raymond Brien.

In 2003, Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services of the Berkshires was renamed the Brien Center for Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services in honor of Raymond Brien, the organization’s longtime President and CEO, whose leadership and dedication left a lasting impact on the community until his passing in 2002.

Today, we honor Patricia’s memory and recognize the enduring legacy of compassion, service, and commitment shared by the Brien family.

With deepest sympathy,
The Brien Center for Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services
