The Capital Area Behavioral Health Collaborative, Inc. (CABHC) has opportunities to get involved in HealthChoices for Cumberland, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon, and Perry Counties. Committees exist to ensure County staff, consumers, family members, parents of children, and persons in recovery, involvement in all areas of the oversight of the Counties’ HealthChoices Behavioral Health Program.
Committee members are valuable to our process, and we wish to recognize the time and energy it takes for non-paid persons to commit to this process. Our volunteer committee members are able to receive reimbursement for approved travel expenses as well as a stipend for attendance at meetings.
