“Our dedicated staff works so hard throughout the year to provide all our consumers, their families, and partnering agencies support services to better serve the greater Northern New Jersey area, and destigmatize mental illness,” said CBH Care Executive Director Sue Devlin. “This was a banner year for us as an organization, as we’ve expanded strategic partnerships, lead countless trainings, and continued to provide top-notch services to residents and their families, so we felt that delivering ice cream in August was a nice way to show gratitude to staff and consumers at our three main facilities.”
CBH Care staff currently facilitates the Bergen County Intensive Family Support Services (IFSS) program service for the families of relatives with mental illness.
