Stars Behavioral Health Group was founded in 1988 and has always served adults, as well as children. But our growth over the past three decades has been more in children’s services. In recent years, our leadership team has expanded our company’s focus to increase our services to adults (including family members of the children we serve). We have made great strides in providing more services for Transition Age Youth (TAY) and adults through newly awarded contracts. These include:
