A Message From The CEO
"When choosing a new challenge for myself in the career of mental health, I selected Wyoming Behavioral Institute specifically for the potential it holds as a premiere provider of care for those of any age with psychiatric illness. Wyoming is a frontier state but not behind the times in changing the face and nature of inpatient psychiatric treatment. The opportunity to be a part of Wyoming Behavioral Institute is an honor and I look forward to getting to know those already working in the field in rural areas and larger towns. I invite you to join me in helping Wyoming Behavioral Institute grow into its new building and a new era of health care."
