Hill Country Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities will operate the facility as Comal County’s population continues to grow. “This is an opportunity to treat locally instead of them having to get shipped off to some private hospital that might be hundreds of miles away,” Hill Country Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities chief executive officer Tod Citron said. “They are served here, stabilized in their own community, and then we refer them out locally for services.”Nate Kotisso joined KSAT as a digital journalist in 2024.
