Mission

PCPA promotes a community-based, responsive and viable system of agencies providing quality services for individuals receiving mental health, intellectual disabilities, addictive disease and other related human services. To achieve that purpose, the Association serves as a forum for the exchange of information and experience, represents providers on legislative and administrative matters, and serves as a point of contact with other related statewide organizations.

About the Association

The Pennsylvania Community Providers Association (PCPA) is a trade association whose members are community agencies serving persons with mental illness, mental retardation, or substance abuse. Membership is also open to other organizations and individuals concerned about persons with mental disabilities and drug and alcohol disorders.

PCPA serves as a forum for the exchange of information and experience, represents providers on legislative and administrative matters, and serves as a point of contact with other related statewide organizations. The governing body is composed of 16 regional representatives elected from four regions, and the officers of the association. Each region designates a chairperson who is responsible for organizing regional membership meetings. Through these local meetings, the Association obtains broader membership input and networking.

The association is a member of the National Community Behavioral Healthcare Council (www.nccbh.org) which provides a national perspective on mental health and substance abuse issues.

Midnight In Chicago is pleased with the linkage.
