Hub Coalition Porter County is the county’s official coalition for behavioral health — driving prevention, recovery, mental health, and harm reduction initiatives across Valparaiso, Portage, Chesterton, and beyond.

About Hub Coalition Porter County
Since 1989, we’ve united community partners, evidence-based strategies, and measurable outcomes to build a healthier, safer Porter County.
We’re more than a coalition — we’re a countywide movement. Hub Coalition Porter County brings together service providers, civic leaders, healthcare professionals, educators, and residents to create lasting change.
Using the Strategic Prevention Framework, we assess community needs, build capacity, select proven programs, and evaluate impact. Our initiatives prioritize mental health education, harm reduction, youth prevention, and community wellness programs that reach thousands each year.
