The organization states that its mission is to elevate the mental well-being of youth and children in Lancaster County. Its work includes building pathways into mental-health careers and retaining licensed providers; improving young people’s and families’ access to mental healthcare; and education and advocacy around youth mental wellness.

Its 2024 filing describes investments in clinical fellowships, scholarships for students pursuing mental-health careers, youth and caregiver programs, community-benefit grants supporting youth mentorship, and education and advocacy activities. The filing says that 2024 community-benefit grants supported five organizations. The website’s Community Grants Program describes priorities including care coordination, parent and caregiver education, and provider capacity.

Examples of organizations receiving grants in 2023 include Bench Mark Program, whose stated mission is to provide multi-year, positive mentorship to high-risk youth; COBYS Family Services, which says it educates, supports, and empowers children and adults; and Pennsylvania Health Access Network, which describes its work as expanding and protecting access to high-quality, equitable healthcare for Pennsylvanians.

Grantmaking

The IRS filing data reports 15 grants totaling $246,000 in 2023, an average of about $16,400 per grant. In 2022, it reports 13 grants totaling $211,150. The 2024 filing data lists zero grants.
