Trillium Place is relocating its East Peoria facility to a larger, more accessible space.
The behavioral health and addiction recovery services affiliate of Carle Health of Greater Peoria transitioned to a medical office on River Road, in the city's main shopping and dining district.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony Friday marked the opening of the 6,000-square‑foot space, which includes multiple individual and group therapy rooms, in addition to exam rooms.
“This facility is in a central, easy-to-access location here on River Road, and ensures our specialists are close by whenever patients need us,” said Heather Hintz, interim president of Trillium Place.
“We know that access to care remains a challenge, not just in Greater Peoria but nationwide. We are committed to supporting continuity of care across Central Illinois and ensuring that all individuals and families have access to the high‑quality behavioral health services they deserve.”
State Sen. Dave Koehler and East Peoria Mayor John Kahl participated in the ceremony that highlighted Trillium Place’s move from a second-floor space in the former Regions Bank building on West Washington.
That building near the Four Corners intersection is slated for demolition later this year to make way for a 7 Brew Coffee location.
The new Trillium facility will offer a range of outpatient addiction recovery services such as group therapy, addiction and relapse prevention education, DUI services and other resources designed to support long‑term healing.
“Our goal with this move is to ensure that those seeking recovery have the best tools, the strongest resources, and a team fully committed to assisting them in every step of their journey,” said Dr. Derrick Booth, executive director of community services.
“We are proud of this space, proud of our team, and proud of the hope and healing that will continue to grow inside these walls.”
