Intercept Health is a family-owned agency, headquartered in Richmond, with additional office sites in more than 15 locations across the state. Started as a single group home provider in 1996, Intercept's primary goal at that time was to "redefine the group home experience." As the needs of families and communities changed, Intercept responded with the development of the LifeBridge Continuum of Care. Now in our 26th year, Intercept Health continues to evolve through collaboration with community partners to create innovative services. Today, Intercept's 650 colleagues offer more than thirty services to meet the unique needs of youth and their families throughout Virginia. Our team members exhibit our VALUES – STOP & ASK:

• Service Excellence - "WOW" clients, customers, and coworkers.

• Authenticity – be genuine and trustworthy.
