Description	Park Center, Inc. (formerly the Mental Health Center at Fort Wayne) has a long history of providing behavioral health services and collaborating with other organizations to improve the system of care in the community. Services began in 1947 when a volunteer community group formed the first board of directors for the Ft. Wayne Child Guidance Clinic. In 1962, services began at the Adult Psychiatric Clinic with the mission to serve seriously mentally ill adults. In 1967, it merged with the Child Guidance Clinic to become the Mental Health Center at Fort Wayne. The state of Indiana designated it a community mental health center in 1975, with a primary service area of Allen, Adams, and Wells Counties. Park Center offers 24-hour, 7 day a week comprehensive services operating through three clinical service centers: Child and Adult Services, Adult Community Services, and Managed Care Services.
