Who is Regional Mental Health Services Coordination Office?
Welcome!
The Mental Health Departments in the southeast counties of Pennsylvania (Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia), collaboratively plan and develop regional specialized support services for adults (18+) who have serious mental illness. As individuals are returning to the community from State Hospitals, institutions, or from long term placements, the Counties together are developing specialized residential and other support services to meet the needs of each individual. As many of the specialized services become available, counties may offer individuals a support even if the service is not located in the consumer's "home" county. This approach benefits individuals who might otherwise remain unnecessarily in institutions and allows counties a cost effective means of sharing specialized resources.
