We seek compassionate individuals who are driven to provide outstanding care to those we serve.
CDMHC and the South Carolina Department of Mental Health have an unsurpassed commitment to ongoing learning and professional development.

Our organization is committed to service to our community, and staff members have many opportunities to participate in community events and presentations to reduce stigma and increase awareness of mental health. For those wanting to make a difference in individual's lives and the surrounding communities of the Lowcountry, there is no better place to practice in the mental health field.
