Since 1987
Serving our neighbors
No matter their ability to pay



Early in 1987, a group of Mental Heath, Education, Medical and Guidance Professionals gathered to discuss the increasing need of individuals to receive more than the traditional services of their respective professions.

It was within this atmosphere of experience, care and concern that TRICO CORPORATION was envisioned. And from this vision came the reality of providing a wide range of care, treatment, prevention and evaluative services within the context of ONE PRIVATE, NON-PROFIT, CHARITABLE CORPORATION.

PERSON-CENTERED
We focus on the individual no matter the complexity of the issues presented. Our services are based on the goals of the individual. Implementation of treatment and services follow examination and evaluation of internal and external barriers, if any, to those goals.

We recommend a plan for individuals and assist in achieving the individual goal (s) with our professional and/or with the professionals within our network of specialized organizations.

FOR ALL AGES
Because of the increasing complexities in living for ALL AGE GROUPS, we provide specialized assessment, care, and treatment for emotional issues of the total life span FROM EARLY CHILDHOOD THROUGH MATURE ADULTHOOD.
