About Us

About Brightli

Brightli is on a mission:

A mission to improve client care, reduce the financial burden of community mental health centers by sharing resources, a mission to have a larger voice in advocacy to increase access to mental health and substance use care in our communities, and a mission to evolve the behavioral health industry to better meet the needs of our clients.

We are doing this by forming a new behavioral health organization under new model.

Under one parent company, multiple organizations are able to collaborate, share resources and system supports, increase recruiting and retention efforts, increase access to specialized care, and meet the growing demand for behavioral and addiction recovery care.

Brightli's top-line subsidiaries include Burrell Behavioral Health (Burrell) and Preferred Family Healthcare (PFH).

While these organizations operate independently and are governed by separate board of directors, their operations and services benefit from this model.

Alone, organizations may be able to navigate the current tumultuous healthcare environment, but we believe that together we can do so much more than survive.

Our communities need us now more than ever, and by working together we are ready to answer their call for years to come.
