In 2002, the Mental Health Association of Beaver County was given the opportunity to construct a new building and consolidate its programs and services under one roof. The site chosen in the Borough of Rochester’s central business district offers numerous benefits for pedestrian access to public transportation, services and residential neighborhoods, and encourages community integration for the Center’s consumers.  The completed building provides bright, flexible space and convenient access to public transportation.  The project was made possible by private-public partnerships.  The number of consumers coming to the Phoenix Center has increased dramatically due to the comfortable space and central location.
