Trillium Health Resources reports 6,817 Pitt County clients served last year; senior regional VP outlines programs and plans
Summary
Trillium Health Resources reported serving 6,817 Pitt County residents last fiscal year and described regional responsibilities, service changes, local projects, and plans to relocate its corporate office in Greenville.
Dave Peterson, senior regional vice president at Trillium Health Resources, presented the organization’s annual/regional update to the Pitt County Board of Commissioners, summarizing services and local activity for behavioral health, developmental disabilities and substance-use treatment.
Peterson said Trillium served 6,817 Pitt County residents last fiscal year (part of more than 103,000 unique individuals served systemwide) and described program areas, regional consolidation and the state’s role in assigning some foster-care services to other plans. He said total regional expenditures were approximately $1.7 billion and noted that Trillium’s corporate office is located in Pitt County; Peterson also said the corporate office would move in late summer to a different Greenville address.
Peterson described local programs and partnerships intended to expand access and reduce emergency-room usage, citing an integrated behavioral health urgent-care site opened about 56 months earlier. He also noted workforce and administrative transitions: the state consolidated some functions in 2021 and moved lower‑risk Medicaid populations to mainstream plans while Trillium retained higher‑need populations.
Commissioners thanked Trillium for local services and Peterson said he plans to retire; the organization is recruiting his successor.
Next steps: Trillium will continue local program support; commissioners and staff may follow up on specific local projects and continuing partnership details.
