Ribbon Cutting Set for Sept. 2 at New Patriot Way Location

(UCBJ) – The Mental Health Cooperative (MHC) will open a new facility at 979 Patriot Way in Cookeville with a ribbon-cutting ceremony Wednesday, Sept. 2, at 10 a.m. The move to the new facility was made to “provide a better experience,” according to the company.

The location serves the largest region for MHC, covering:

  • Putnam
  • Clay
  • Pickett
  • Cumberland
  • DeKalb
  • Fentress
  • Jackson
  • Morgan
  • Overton
  • Smith
  • White
  • Van Buren

Those in attendance will have the opportunity to tour the facility.

“At Mental Health Cooperative, we know that life’s hardest challenges rarely come one at a time,” according to the company. “Many people face mental health or substance use struggles while also trying to keep food on the table, secure housing, or navigate confusing insurance systems. That’s why MHC exists – to make the whole journey easier. With more than 900 professionals across Tennessee, we provide fast, guided, whole-person care that integrates mental health, physical health, and real-world supports like housing and transportation. For over 30 years, MHC has walked alongside more than 200,000 Tennesseans, ensuring that people with TennCare, limited coverage, or no insurance at all can stop just getting by and start truly getting better.”

Expected attendees include Dr. Corey Cronrath, interim chief executive officer of the Mental Health Cooperative; Kayla Jackson, facility director of the Cookeville office; Matt Yancey, deputy commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services; and representatives of the Cookeville Chamber of Commerce.

The property itself is now listed at Tri Oak Consulting Group. For more information on MHC, call 615-743-1555, email info@mhc-tn.org or visit mhc-tn.org.
