Pineland BHDD Community Service Board (PCSB) has 36 locations serving an eight-county region. The targeted region is rural, with limited community-based services, particularly for individuals with disabilities and their families. Pineland CSB worked throughout the pandemic to address the critical needs of individuals served, however telehealth services were faced with significant challenges. The majority of PCSB consumers were impacted by extended Shelter-in-Place orders that were only lifted on April 21, 2021, as individuals with SMI, SED, I/DD and COD that live in residential settings and individuals with compromised immune systems were placed in strict lockdowns. Project Restore will support Pineland’s restoration of clinical service deliveries to achieve and surpass pre-COVID-19 volume, effectively addressing the needs of individuals with serious emotional disturbance (SED), serious mental illness (SMI), and individuals with SMI or SED and substance use disorders, referred to as co-occurring disorder (COD). Funds will expand staff, support telehealth infrastructure, enable expanded training, extensive outreach, and support CMHC staff.
