Horizon Healthcare Partners

East Providence, Rhode Island

The Moran Company is pleased to partner with Horizon Healthcare Partners

to recruit the organization’s next Chief Executive Officer.

Organizational Background

Located in East Providence, Rhode Island Horizon Healthcare Partners (HHP) was formed in 2010 by four community mental health centers to share services and build capacity. The organization recruited and shared professional staff and identified gaps in services that required them to operate as a network.

In 2013 – 2014, the members invested time and prior period income into modifying HHP to give it more contracting authority. Thanks to a Rhode Island Foundation matching grant, the local Board representatives from member agencies "re-engineered" HHP.

Today, HHP is a non-profit “atypical parent company” recognized by the state of Rhode Island that supports seven recovery-oriented, community-based organizations. HHP acts as a supporting corporation hub, an intermediary, a broker, and a networker on behalf of its member organizations.

HHP is a statewide behavioral health and human service network able to secure large state and federal grants that would not be available to individual agencies. HHP also works to improve access, customize solutions, demonstrate effectiveness, and share best practices. Its customers are businesses, health plans, state and municipal organizations, and other non-profits including their attorneys, auditors and insurance brokers.

HHP is responsible for several large statewide contracts including providing Rhode

Island’s 988 suicide call center, Rhode Island’s BH Link 23-hour crisis center, Rhode Island Outreach RIO demonstration project and other state contracts.

HHP holds the core belief that creative, recovery-oriented, community-based

collaboration serves as an alternative to hospital-based care, reduces risk, reduces cost, and reduces the disabling effects of mental illness.
