“The key is individualized treatments, not a one-size-fits-all approach.” – Jen McLaughlin, CSG

Pennsylvania is facing a deepening mental health care crisis, fueled by workforce shortages and service gaps, especially in rural areas. Last week, CSG joined state senators, mental health providers, and community leaders at a roundtable hosted at Geisinger’s new Behavioral Health Center to discuss solutions.

Jen McLaughlin, CSG’s Director of Mental Health Services, shared concerns about the future of Medicaid funding, the importance of individualized treatment, and the urgent need for better public transportation to help individuals access care.

When we remove barriers and invest in prevention that is built around the whole person, we build stronger, healthier communities for all. 💙

Building Skills, creativity, and confidence! 🧱

Our Lancaster Outpatient team recently launched the LEGO-Based Skills Group for kids ages 7-11, led by clinicians Lindsay Perez and Josalyn Davis. Through collaborative LEGO play, children are developing social and communication skills in a creative, hands-on way.

Research shows that structured, play-based activities like this can improve problem-solving abilities, boost cooperation, and enhance emotional regulation. We’re thrilled to have 5 kids actively participating, with another joining soon!

We're grateful for the team leading these young builders and helping them grow their skills 🫶

According to the American Psychiatric Association, only one in three Black adults who need mental health care receives it, and similar disparities exist for Hispanic/Latinx, Asian, and Indigenous communities.

This month is Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, also known as Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. From stigma and cultural barriers to a lack of access and representation in care, many individuals face added layers of difficulty when seeking support.

At CSG, we believe mental health care should be accessible to all, no matter your race or ethnicity. Our services are inclusive and designed to support the diverse communities we serve.

A disability is not something to hide—it’s something to honor. July is Disability Pride Month, and a great reminder to celebrate the strength, resilience, and contributions of people with disabilities in our communities.

At CSG, we’re proud to support individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, helping them live with purpose, dignity, and independence. When we recognize and embrace the differences in all of us, we build stronger, more inclusive communities where everyone can thrive.

Let's all remember to celebrate our differences and see the different abilities and beauty in everyone! 🌟

This year's PRIDE celebrations were a great example of how communities can come together and support one another. 🏳️‍🌈 We're grateful that our team was able to participate in a few events throughout the 19 counties we serve! Here are a few photos of our team in action at this year's York Pride, and we look forward to participating at Bloomsburg Pride later this month. Be sure to stop by and grab some CSG swag!

Thank you to everyone who makes these events happen!

After 39 incredible years with CSG, we are celebrating the retirement of Peg Van Schaick, Vice President of IDD Services, on June 30.

Peg has brought unmatched energy and passion to every aspect of her work—serving individuals, supporting employees, and strengthening communities. Her leadership helped shape the future of IDD services, guiding CSG through challenges like the shift to performance-based contracting and elevating our voice at the state and national level.

Her impact is lasting, and while we’re sad to see her go, we’re filled with gratitude for all she’s done. 💙

Please join us in wishing Peg a joyful and well-deserved retirement! 🎉

Did you know that 1 in 4 men experience a mental health condition in their lifetime—yet many never seek help? (Mental Health America) It's time to break the silence around mental health care for men.

At CSG, we’re working to change that statistic. Mental health challenges don’t discriminate, and breaking the stigma for men starts with open conversations and access to support. Whether it’s stress, depression, anxiety, or just needing someone to talk to, help is available—and it’s okay to reach out.

Let’s support the men in our lives by encouraging openness, understanding, and care. If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health challenge, CSG can help. Get in touch today or learn more at csgonline.org

☀️ Summer Break Is Here! ☀️ Let’s Talk Transitions.

The shift from school-year routines to summer schedules can be a big adjustment—for children, families, and caregivers alike. For individuals with mental health challenges or intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), that change can bring added stress, unpredictability, and the need for extra support.

It's also important to recognize the important role caregivers play in helping individuals navigate these transitions. At CSG, we're here to support both the individuals we serve and the caregivers who show up for them every day. Whether it’s access to therapeutic services, skill-building, or community support, you don’t have to go it alone. Just give us a call.

Wishing everyone a happy, healthy, supported summer. 💚
