On July 23, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro hosted a “Main Street Matters” event awarding the city of Lewistown as an official “Pennsylvania Main Street Designation.” The designation will open state funding opportunities via Pennsylvania’s Department of Community and Economic Development (PDCED). Director Tisha Schwanger and Case Manager Melissa Maxwell from Merakey’s Blended Case Management (BCM) program had an opportunity to speak with the Governor and share the programs that Merakey offers in the region, including BCM, Intensive Behavioral Health Services, School-Based Services, and Dual Diagnosis Treatment Team Services opening soon.
Governor Shapiro expressed his appreciation for Merakey’s service to the community and said to keep up the good work!
