CHALLENGES IN COMMUNITY CARE
Built for the realities of community health.
FQHCs are under immense pressure to meet growing behavioral health needs—but limited clinicians, support, and infrastructure make it hard to keep up.

Unlike vendors offering staffing contracts or bolt-on services, Ascend was built by clinicians and operators who’ve led this work inside community health centers. We understand your challenges—and we integrate fully to grow with you.
Integrated Care Teams
Psychiatrists, therapists, and SUD providers working within your model to expand access and improve outcomes.
Full Clinical and Operational Oversight
From supervision to workflows, compliance, and quality—our team is your team. We co-create the solution that fits, then bring the tools, talent, and experience to make it thrive.
Scalable Programs with Proven Success
We've delivered over 200,000 patient encounters and helped FQHCs nationwide launch and grow sustainable, high-performing behavioral health programs.
