Welcome to the Kern County Mental Health website. We hope that as you read and search our site, you will gain more than "facts and figures". We hope that you will see that KCMH is a high quality county mental health department. We utilize many well-respected evidence-based approaches, and are constantly working to improve our ability to serve people of multiple cultures or having complex problems. However what we really hope comes through on our website is that we believe that individuals with mental illnesses or addictions can recover and rejoin us as members of a thriving community. To be a successful department, we always start with hope. Whether you are an individual looking for help, a family member seeking understanding for a loved one, or even a professional looking for a place to work, we are glad you started here. There is recovery and hope available, and we invite you to join us on that journey. 
Working together to achieve hope, healing,
and a meaningful life in the community.

People with mental illness and addictions recover to achieve their hopes and dreams, enjoy opportunities to learn, work and contribute to their community.
Hope, Healing, Community, Authority
We honor the potential in everyone
We value the whole person - mind, body and spirit
We focus on the person, not the illness
We embrace diversity
We acknowledge that relapse is not a
personal failure
We recognize authority over our lives
empowers us to make choices, solve
problems and plan for the future
