East Central Missouri Behavioral Health Services, Inc. d/b/a Arthur Center is a
community mental health center headquartered in Mexico, Missouri.
Arthur Center serves the behavioral health needs of approximately 3,800 people a year in the
counties of Audrain, Callaway, Montgomery, Pike, Ralls and Monroe counties.
Arthur Center’s mission is centered in the concept of “partnership.” This partnership begins with
the people we serve, their family, schools and the community. This partnership mission seeks to
meet the people we serve recognizing the need to engage in a relationship of trust.
In addition, to the people we serve and their families,
we seek to partner with other human service
agencies in better meeting the behavioral health
needs of our communities.
Especially in rural areas, it is important to partner to
avoid duplicating resources when resources are scarce
and often more expensive because of geography and
fewer numbers of participants available.
