Founded in 1969 by West Virginia University, Valley Counseling Services united with The Human Resources Association and incorporated as Valley Community Mental Health Services in 1972. Doing business as Valley HealthCare System, a nonprofit corporation, Valley has grown from a small counseling center located in the basement of a University building to a large multi-county, comprehensive behavioral health program. Spurred by the federal government, funds became available through the passage of the Community Mental Health Center Act of 1963, introduced by President John F. Kennedy and Valley was able to establish itself as one of 13 federally-funded mental health centers in the state in the early 1970’s. Over the years, Valley has continued to add to its array of services for people with disabilities, including services for individuals with developmental disabilities, mental health and chemical dependency issues. We believe that the work that we do in Monongalia, Marion, Preston and Taylor Counties enhances the quality of life, not just for the persons served, but for everyone in those counties as well. Valley HealthCare System Quality of Care for Quality of Life OUR MISSION: Valley HealthCare System shall improve our community’s health by delivering the highest quality behavioral health care guided by our consumers’ needs.

As the most respected and well-established hospice, Hoffmann Hospice has had the privilege of serving over 20,000 adults, children and veterans who have a serious or terminal illness, regardless of their ability to pay. Our mission is to celebrate the sanctity of life, provide compassionate end-of-life care and comfort the grieving. Hoffmann Hospice serves Kern County communities including the outlying areas of Delano, Taft, Arvin, Frazier Park and Tehachapi. To this day, the agency is one that the community can continue to call its own- with no owners or shareholders- guided under the leadership of local Board of Directors members. Hoffmann Hospice became associated with Dignity Health September 30, 2014 and is now their preferred hospice provider in Kern County. The association of the two non-profit organizations represents an expansion of hospice services offered by Dignity Health. With the anticipated 2015 opening of the Hoffmann Home, Kern County’s first and only hospice home, and the expected 1,800 additional families served, Dignity Health and Hoffmann Hospice recognize that through aligning core services and operational strengths the end result is improved access to quality end of life care for Kern County residents.
