CARBON MONROE PIKE COUNTIES COMMUNITY SUPPORT PROGRAM (CSP)

The Community Support Program (CSP) is a coalition of mental health consumers of services, family members, advocates and professionals who work together to ensure quality mental health services in the community.

CSPs accomplish this through advocacy, education and the elimination of stigma and discrimination.

Members of the local CSP committees participate in the activities, which are designed to heighten awareness about mental illness and improve the quality of life for consumers.

By promoting such activities, the CSP helps individuals gain confidence, self-esteem and independence in the community.

As Northeast Pennsylvania Regional Coordinator for CSP, the Advocacy Alliance’s goal is to educate and assist local communities in improving opportunities and services for persons involved with mental health or substance issues.

The CSP envisions a service delivery system which will provide a flexible array of appropriate and creative opportunities and services responsive to individual need.
