The Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board was established in 1969. The mission of the Community Services Board is to:

• Serve Fairfax-Falls Church residents with, or at risk of, severe and persistent mental illness or acute psychiatric emotional distress; mental retardation; or alcohol or drug abuse or dependency.
• Empower and support the people we serve to live self-determined, productive and valued lives within our communities.
• Identify, develop, and offer programs on prevention, intervention, treatment, rehabilitation, residential, and other support services in a personalized, flexible manner appropriate to the needs of each individual and family whom we serve. (updated March 2001)
