Welcome to Southeastern Center
Welcome to our new website!
Southeastern Center is proud and excited to welcome you to our new website. Although
existing consumers and providers will notice our vibrant new look instantly, we'd like
to stress that the changes to the site are more than just cosmetic. Our aim with
secmh.org is to continue to provide a single site from which both consumers and providers
will be able to quickly find the relevant information they need. Please take some
time to get familiar with the new site and keep checking back regularly as we’ll be
adding further content over the coming weeks. We suggest taking a look at the
site map for an overview of where you can find things on
our new site.
Even though a lot of work has gone into the new site, there’s still much work left to do. If you discover any dead links or other errors, please do us a favor by reporting them to the webmaster. We would like to thank you for your continued support.
