NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Short-term counseling is now available for some Tennesseans thanks to a nonprofit mental health provider.
The Centerstone is offering COVID-19 relief through the Tennessee Recovery Project, which is a partnership with the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services and funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
