About us
Vaya Health is whole-person health organization helping those with behavioral health and intellectual or developmental disabilities connect with the right providers on their journey toward healing, recovery and hope. At Vaya Health, our goal is to embrace innovation, adapt to a changing environment and maximize resources for the long-term benefit of the people and communities we serve. We maintain a network of highly qualified providers, respond to individual and family needs on a local level and effectively manage public service dollars. Additionally, through a robust public outreach program, we educate the community about mental health, substance use disorder and I/DD issues and available services — individuals in need can speak with a representative any time. Through reinvestment initiatives, we are demonstrating every day how public managed care can benefit both the people who receive our services and the taxpayers of North Carolina. Every day, we work with each other, our providers, our partners and the people we serve to develop the best and most-needed services for a healthier North Carolina.

At Vaya Health, we recognize the unique mental health challenges faced by minority communities, from cultural stigma, language barriers, economic disparities, and discrimination. We are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can access the care they need. This July, in honor of Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, let's raise awareness and create more supportive communities for all individuals. Inspired by Bebe Moore Campbell, a literary trailblazer and co-founder of NAMI Urban Los Angeles, we honor her legacy and her fight against stigma. Campbell's work revolutionized mental health care in underserved populations highlighting the need for inclusive and equitable resources.
