Celebrating 75 Years of Service in 2024


Brook Lane Celebrates 75 Years of History 

From humble roots stemming from the Mennonite Mental Health Care Movement to one of the largest health services systems providing care to clients across the Tri-County Area, Brook Lane has come a long way in the last 75 years. There have been a wide array of changes across all sectors of the organization during this time that include treatment approaches, construction endeavors, expansion of services, fundraising events, community involvement, and more! Our activities and impact over the years are so extensive that we could not fit them all on one page. So, we invite you to travel with us across the last 75 years (and into the future!) by clicking on the decade links below:

How Are We Celebrating?

As part of this year's festivities we will be sharing additional anniversary content across our media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Youtube, & Podcast) that we invite you to follow! We'll also be adding special anniversary twists on annual events like our upcoming Bridge to Hope event that is taking place on Saturday, April 27th, 2024.  Additionally, stay tuned for more information on a fabulous Fall Festival coming up in September that will further celebrate our legacy and look to the future. 

We are so proud of where we've come from and anticipate where we're going in our efforts to provide hope, healing, and recovery for all.
