Services, created in 1972 by a joint resolution of Danville City
Council and the Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors, is the
Community Services Board that provides mental health, intellectual
disability, substance abuse, and prevention services to the
citizens of our City and County. A 15-member Board of
Directors, which is appointed by Danville City Council and the
Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors, establishes policy and
direction for the Agency. The Board of Directors contracts
with its Executive Director to lead, direct, and supervise the
Agency's day-to-day operations. Today, Danville-Pittsylvania
Community Services has grown to be a large employer in Southside
Virginia, with more than 250 staff members and an annual operating
budget in excess of 15 million dollars. In Fiscal Year 2009,
our Agency served 4,476 different individuals through its
behavioral
health and intellectual disability divisions of
service. An additional 5,175 individuals were involved in
the Agency's prevention programs.

community service that strives to unlock the potential for growth
and recovery in those we have the honor and privilege to serve.

upon unlocking each consumer's potential for self-determination,
empowerment, recovery, resiliency and health, and the highest possible
level of participation in all aspects of community life.
Our Vision:
Our vision is to create, maintain, and
continually enhance a quality behavioral health care continuum of
