Riveon Mental Health And Recovery

What Riveon Mental Health And Recovery does

Riveon Mental Health and Recovery is a 501(c)(3) non-profit behavioral health provider formed in January 2024 through the merger of The Nord Center and The LCADA Way, officially rebranded under the Riveon name in August 2024. The organization delivers integrated mental health, substance use disorder treatment, primary care, crisis intervention, and ancillary support services (pharmacy, childcare, transportation, supported employment) under a "No Wrong Door" model designed to route patients into the full care continuum through any access point. It operates nine physical locations across Lorain, Cuyahoga, Erie, and Huron counties in Ohio, supplemented by a 24/7 crisis hotline (988), walk-in services, telehealth, and an online client portal for scheduling and records access.

The core service portfolio spans mental and behavioral health, addiction treatment (including medication-assisted treatment, ambulatory detox, intensive outpatient programs, and residential services for women), crisis intervention, sexual assault services, problem gambling services, and primary care. Technology components include a client portal, an on-site pharmacy with compliance packaging and prior authorization support, and a nursing services layer. The organization holds CARF International Gold Accreditation and serves over 10,000 people annually.

Riveon generates revenue through a diversified mix including Medicaid, Medicare, and commercial insurance billing, government grants (notably $456,752.67 from the OneOhio Recovery Foundation in January 2025), charitable donations, and a sliding fee scale based on family size and income. Leadership comprises CEO Don Schiffbauer and COO Dan Haight. The go-to-market model is direct-to-consumer via walk-in clinics, hotline, and scheduled appointments, with partnerships funding relationships with OhioMHAS, SAMSHA, the MHADAS Board, OneOhio Foundation, and the Community Foundation of Lorain County anchoring the public funding base.

• Gaudenzia: Large nonprofit behavioral health provider with residential and outpatient addiction and mental health programs across multiple states. Comparable to Riveon in mission, integrated service model, and CARF accreditation.
• BayMark Health Services: Large provider of opioid treatment and addiction recovery services including MAT, IOP, and residential. Directly comparable to Riveon's addiction treatment services and The Key residential program for women.
