Part of the Community Research Foundation, the Jane Westin Center prioritizes accessibility and comprehensive support. Funded by the County of San Diego's Behavioral Health Services, the center welcomes Medi-Cal beneficiaries, dual Medi-Cal/Medicare recipients, Medi-Cal-eligible individuals, and the uninsured, ensuring no one is turned away due to inability to pay. Conveniently situated near multiple bus lines and within walking distance of the City College tram and 5th Avenue light rail stations, the center connects clients with community programs for ongoing psychiatric care, behavioral health support, and social services, helping facilitate a smooth transition to continued care.
