River Edge Behavioral Health Peer Support Move In

Staff Report From Georgia CEO

Thursday, September 24th, 2026

River Edge Behavioral Health is pleased to announce the official relocation of its Adult Peer Support Services program to the new Community Integration Center at 2016 Ingleside Avenue, Macon, Georgia.
 
The new Community Integration Center brings together previously separate services for individuals receiving behavioral health services and individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities under one roof. The facility is fully licensed by the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD), supporting coordinated, person-centered care in a welcoming and accessible setting.
 
By consolidating these programs in a single, accessible location, River Edge Behavioral Health is strengthening coordination of care, improving access to peer-led support, and creating a more integrated environment for the individuals and families it serves. The center plays a vital role in promoting recovery, independence, community inclusion, and meaningful opportunities for individuals to develop skills, establish supportive relationships, and pursue their personal goals.
 
“We are thrilled to officially welcome our Adult Peer Support team to the Ingleside facility alongside our IDD Community Integration programs,” said Frederica McClary-Myers, Chief Clinical Officer at River Edge Behavioral Health. “Although the licensure process required patience and persistence, having both programs fully operational under one roof creates a comprehensive, welcoming hub where individuals can develop life skills, build meaningful connections, and thrive in their communities.”
 
The new center features enhanced, purpose-designed spaces for group sessions, life-skills workshops, physical-health activities, and opportunities to build community connections.
