Our Story

Built by the community, for the community.

Operation Better Together was created to improve behavioral health and well-being among youth through a collaborative, multi-agency approach.

About us

Strong relationships are the foundation.

OBT works with schools, courts, community agencies, healthcare providers, and behavioral health organizations to provide coordinated services for youth and families.

These collaborations help the program reach more children, address a wider range of needs, and connect support across systems.

Our ongoing focus

  • Build strong, trusting relationships with students and families
  • Provide accessible mental health support in schools and community settings
  • Coordinate with partners to improve service delivery and sustainability
