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 260 staff members and an annual operating
budget in excess of 16 million dollars. In Fiscal Year 2012,
our Agency served 5,599 different individuals through its behavioral
health and intellectual disability divisions of service. An
additional 5,590 individuals were involved in
the Agency's prevention programs.
Danville-Pittsylvania Community
Services is a growing organization with a rich history of
community service that strives to unlock the potential for growth
and recovery in those we have the honor and privilege to serve.
