HumanWorks Collective Marks First Anniversary with Focus on Accessible Mental Health Services

HumanWorks Collective, LLC, a Monroe-based behavioral health organization, celebrated its first anniversary on a milestone that underscores the growing importance of accessible mental health and substance use services in Union County and surrounding areas. Founded in 2025, the organization was established with the belief that quality behavioral health care should not be unnecessarily complicated for individuals and families navigating emotional challenges.

Drida McGlown, Founder and CEO of HumanWorks Collective, highlighted the organization’s commitment to overcoming common barriers to receiving care.

HumanWorks Collective offers a range of services, including outpatient mental health therapy, medication management, peer support, substance use counseling, and community-based behavioral health services. The organization also provides anger management and parenting education, helping individuals and families develop practical skills to navigate personal challenges and strengthen relationships. Recognizing that access involves more than simply offering appointments, HWC provides transportation assistance and telehealth options to help individuals overcome common barriers to receiving care.

Throughout its first year, HumanWorks Collective has focused on building relationships with community organizations, healthcare professionals, schools, and other referral sources. McGlown emphasized the importance of collaboration in providing comprehensive support.

As HumanWorks Collective enters its second year, its priorities include strengthening existing programs, expanding community relationships, supporting its clinical workforce, and increasing awareness of available services. The organization is also developing its HumanWorks Consulting division, drawing on more than a decade of human resources and nonprofit experience to support organizations with recruiting, employee relations, workforce development, policies and procedures, and operational improvement.

The release also mentions the publication of the Global Intermodal Freight Transportation Market Analysis, Size, Share, Professional, and Forecast 2022 report. However, this information is not directly related to HumanWorks Collective's activities and is not included in the article.
