DETROIT, MI – June 10, 2026 – The Detroit Wayne Integrated Health Network (DWIHN) is proud to recognize its 707 Crisis Care Center’s second year of operation with strong growth and quality service to its guests. In its second year, the Center received just under 3,400 individuals, a marked increase from last year.
“Our Crisis Care Services team continues to shine a light for those dealing with dark times in their lives,” said James E. White, DWIHN President and CEO. “707 Crisis Care Center is truly a beacon for the region.”
"For two years, the 707 Crisis Care Center has been a place of hope, healing, and support for individuals and families in crisis, said Board Chair, Jonathan C. Kinloch. "We are proud of this achievement and remain committed to expanding access to quality behavioral healthcare."
In its first year, the 707 Crisis Care Center served over 2,380 guests, In the same year, the facility received the Gold Seal of Approval from the Joint Commission, a testament to quality performance standards. More recently, 707 was recognized with the National Alliance on Mental Illness Michigan Honors Award for the Best Hospital/Managed Care Organization for 2026.
“We are committed making a difference in the lives of our guests,” said Grace Wolf, DWIHN Vice President of Crisis Services.”
The first of its kind facility in the State, the Center is in the heart of Detroit providing direct specialized care for individuals in crisis, easing the burden on local first responder agencies, which are not always equipped to offer appropriate mental health support.
The Center offers person-focused services for crisis calls and walk-ins 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, all the under one roof; from Crisis Walk-In and Adult Crisis Stabilization to Youth and Family Crisis Unit, and a special peer-led program called B.E.S.T (Building Empowered Supportive Transition) Unit, which is setting a new standard in the industry.
This year, DWIHN added Behavioral Health Urgent Care to address acute needs within the facility as well as walk-ins. For the year, the Center has admitted 129 guests for the B.E.S.T. Unit, while 308 received treatment in its Behavioral Health Urgent Care.
“We are proud to be a resource and refuge for those struggling in the lowest points of their lives. We’re here when you need us most, 24/7/365,” said White.
The 707 Crisis Care Center evaluates adults and adolescents in behavioral health crises to determine their medical necessity for crisis-level services. It offers 32 beds to DWIHN’s Crisis Continuum of Care for individuals needing help.
Anyone who needs services can call 313-989-9444, or people can walk in, and they will be assisted by staff.
