Chester County Commissioner Josh Maxwell purposefully targeted American Rescue Plan funds with the goal of improving services to disproportionately impacted communities with key investments to improve public health. Nearly $13 million has been invested in behavioral and mental health initiatives that will support a three-pillar mental health response plan, including the Chester County 9-8-8 Mental Health Crisis Response system, mobile mental health crisis teams, and crisis stabilization centers. Additionally, $2.5 million was allocated to the Christiana Care West Grove Campus for capital improvement projects to help the hospital’s planned re-opening and returning much-needed services to residents.
