History Celebrated at Mental Health Agency

On Friday, March 8, the Detroit Wayne Integrated Health Network (DWIHN) celebrated the opening of an exciting new chapter in holistic care in Wayne County by dedicating its new offices for executive, administrative, program staff and a board room. The new building, located at 8726 Woodward Ave. in Detroit’s North End neighborhood, is tailor-made for the community with meeting space and training rooms throughout the facility.

“DWIHN has experienced exponential growth and continues to deliver quality behavioral healthcare services in Detroit and Wayne County,” said DWIHN President/CEO Eric Doeh, “The work and community spaces must accommodate and complement our efforts to meet the ever-increasing needs of those we serve.”

The DWIHN workforce, with close to 600 employees, has seen steady growth in recent years and continues to provide quality behavioral healthcare services throughout Wayne County.

“Detroit residents deserve access to quality mental health resources and now they can be connected to services, right here on Detroit’s North End,” said Mayor Mike Duggan. “DWIHN’s commitment to behavioral healthcare will now be supported by a beautiful administrative building with the capacity to house their team and provide community members with a safe space to learn about important resources.”

In 2022, DWIHN began a $14 million construction/renovation project on its new Administration Building, taking time, consideration and gathering input from neighborhood partners and staff as to what to include in the space that would be beneficial to all while honoring the integrity of the historic structure.

“As the county commissioner representing the area where the new administration building is located and a proud member of DWIHN’s Board of Directors, I am thrilled to see this innovative space come to life. This new workspace will not only enhance the delivery of quality behavioral healthcare services, but also serve as a symbol of our commitment to meeting the evolving needs of our 43 communities. DWIHN’s dedication to holistic care is truly commendable, and I look forward to the positive impact it will have on the residents we serve,” according to Jonathan C. Kinloch, Wayne County Commissioner – District 2

The former Utley Branch Library, built in 1913, is filled with heritage and history. The design team took great care to preserve the charm of the space, restoring period-specific architectural features, from copper cornices to terrazzo flooring. DWIHN is excited to be a mainstay in Detroit’s North End, revitalizing this building and expanding our footprint with jobs and offering community services for years to come.

“DWIHN will endeavor to be a good neighbor and partner as our offices will host trainings from Mental Health First Aid, Suicide Prevention to critical Narcan trainings to reverse overdoses and stave off the opioid crisis that has ravaged our communities throughout the nation,” said Doeh.

*****
