“Having a presence at Catalyst HTI fit perfectly with our commitment to trail blaze innovations and partnerships that will bring behavioral health services to more people,” said Carl Clark, M.D., president and CEO of the Mental Health Center of Denver. “Catalyst HTI brings together organizations and individuals with great passion, energy and drive to unleash the power of innovation to improve the lives of others. We’re honored to be a part of it.”

The Mental Health Center of Denver is the national leader in behavioral health care by delivering innovative and evidence-based services guided by the principles of well-being. Driven by a commitment to create extraordinary experiences that improve well-being for everyone in Denver, the Mental Health Center of Denver is leading the way in using technology and innovation that connects people to services in accessible, efficient and engaged ways.

“We are excited to bring our expertise in behavioral health to Catalyst HTI,” said Wes Williams, PhD, vice president and CIO of the Mental Health Center of Denver. “It’s a game-changer for us to be part of this thriving healthcare community and have the opportunity to create, develop, refine and bring to market cutting-edge innovations that will improve the well-being of our community.”
