Virginia Health Care Foundation

In Virginia, the following community resources exist to help individuals and families coping with the challenges of mental illness:

• Community Services Boards (CSBs) are local government agencies responsible for the delivery of community-based mental health, mental retardation and substance abuse services.  Emergency services and case management are required services, and are usually provided to individuals with serious mental illness. Find your local Virginia Community Services Board.
• Mental Health America/Virginia (MHAV) has 14 affiliates statewide working to developing services to prevent mental illness and assuring the proper care and treatment of mentally ill children and adults. Find a nearby MHAV affiliate.
• 2-1-1 VIRGINIA provides links to mental health service providers by zip code, by region, or statewide.
