Mental Health Resources in Camden County, NJ
Camden County's behavioral health network runs through a handful of large nonprofits and health systems rather than one central clinic. This page lists the places we could verify, grouped by what you need right now.
Every listing below was checked against the organization's own website or a government source on September 9, 2026.
Camden County's crisis screening center
Every New Jersey county has one state-designated screening service that evaluates psychiatric emergencies around the clock. This is Camden County's.
Oaks Integrated Care
The state-designated psychiatric emergency screening service for Camden County.
501 Cooper Landing Road, Cherry Hill, NJ
24/7 screening and stabilization for adults and youth in a psychiatric emergency, plus crisis intervention and referral. Oaks also runs a mental health urgent care for people who do not need hospitalization.
Cost: Screening centers evaluate anyone in a psychiatric emergency regardless of ability to pay.
Oaks asks that you call before visiting. Some directories still list Cooper as Camden County's screening center — that is out of date.
Visit website →You can also call or text 988 from anywhere, any time. If someone is in immediate danger, call 911.
Free help finding care
These lines are staffed by people whose whole job is matching you to a provider. They cost nothing and are usually the fastest way past a stack of outdated directories.
