Community Services Agency
The DC Community Services Agency is the District government’s direct provider of mental health services and acts as a safety net for uninsured residents. It also operates a pharmacy for consumers in our network who have no pharmacy benefits nd are unable to pay for their medications. DC CSA is a core service agency certified under the Mental Health Rehabilitation Services (MHRS) Standards.
Who We Serve We provide multilingual services to adults, children and their families in neighborhood sites across the District. Consumers with co-occurring chemical dependency and/ or developmental disability, as well as individuals with profound hearing loss can receive mental health services at the DC CSA.
What We Do Services integrate the strengths of family relationships, respond to individual cultural differences, and incorporate the special needs of each family into treatment plans. The CSA provides prevention and education services, and uses many treatment interventions including counseling, medication, and other rehabilitation services.
