The Mayview Regional Service Area Plan's work plan goal is to strengthen the behavioral health systems in Allegheny, Beaver, Greene, Lawrence, and Washington counties. Drawing on the experience, knowledge, and the insights of consumers, family members, providers, advocates and county leaders, Allegheny HealthChoices, Inc. (AHCI) is working with the counties to develop a plan to provide the best in behavioral health care for the citizens of the five participating counties.
Historical data and research have shown that traditional models of institutionalization of persons with mental illness can create a barrier between individuals and their return to every day community life. The transition from institutional life to community life is precarious and can trigger relapses--relapses that can be avoided if the person has the services and supports in the community that meet their individual needs.
