The Guidance Center (TGC) is a community based, non-profit agency that serves as the local Community Mental Health Center for Atchison County. We provide a full range of quality outpatient and inpatient referral/release services for individuals, families and businesses in our communities.

Established in 1937 in Atchison, Kansas as the Atchison Child Guidance Clinic, the organization joined forces with Leavenworth County in 1964 and with Jefferson County in 1974. Offices are also located in the cities of Leavenworth and Oskaloosa.

We offer a broad array of home and community based behavioral heath services, always prioritizing those who are most in need without regard for their ability to pay for care. The Guidance Center is the only provider of psychiatry services in the three-county area offering a sliding fee scale for individuals who have no other way to pay for their care.

We are proud of our commitment to promoting recovery for children and adults with serious mental illness and substance abuse issues, and the many partnerships that we have developed in serving children, adolescents, adults and their families. Through advocacy and education, the agency also has made incredible strides in erasing the stigma, shame, and ignorance that prevent more than half of all individuals touched by such problems from seeking treatment.

In 2009, TGC provided services to more than 4,100, offering outpatient therapy, substance abuse services, professional and community education, psychiatry services, 24-hour emergency response and case management/psychosocial services for youth with serious emotional disturbance (SED) and adults with severe and persistent mental illness (SPMI).
