Barbara Gould is an advisory board member for Talbert House, a progressive, multiservice agency that delivers services in criminal justice, mental health and substance abuse to a broad population, helping to improve social behavior and enhance personal recovery and personal growth.
For many years, she has been on a variety of local, state and national boards, councils, and committees, championing the causes of education, the arts, the legal system and public policy.
Talbert House operates multiple service sites throughout Greater Cincinnati. Within the areas of criminal justice, mental health and substance abuse, the organization provides services including assessment, case management, prevention and education, individual and group counseling, day treatment and residential services.
Each year, Talbert House serves more than 31,000 clients on a face-to-face basis and an additional 51,000 clients through prevention services that cover Greater Cincinnati. The organization creates innovative, evidence-based programs that are proven to solve tough social problems that impact all members of the community. Through comprehensive and proven solutions to behavioral health challenges, Talbert House seeks to build a stronger community.
The organization has expanded its service through its affiliation with Gateways, the premier drug and alcohol outpatient treatment center in Greater Cincinnati. Services are designed for adults and adolescents whose drug use or alcohol abuse is interfering with their personal safety, achievements and healthy family communication.
Gateways is an independent nonprofit organization with its own 501(c)(3) tax status and board; however, Talbert House is responsible for the financial, human resources, and quality and clinical services at Gateways.
