Veterans are ever present in our community and represent a unique population that has made great sacrifices in the name of service, honor, and commitment. While we hold deep honor for our Veterans every day of the year, we would like to take this Veterans Day to share about the ways Veterans are involved in our community. The vision of the Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board (CSB) is that everyone in our community has the support needed to live a healthy, fulfilling life, including our remarkable Veterans.  Employees at the CSB The CSB is an equal opportunity employer which means military personnel, active or retired, are encouraged to join our celebrated team. Through internal supportive resources and flexible opportunities, the CSB provides a stable landing ground for Veterans to be matched with in-demand careers while seamlessly being able to attend required military duties.   Individuals We Serve With bleak statistics representing the prevalence of mental health and substance use issues among the Veteran population, the CSB is ready and equipped to support those individuals who qualify. Our clinicians are trained to regularly ask new and existing clients if they have a history of military service. By collecting this information, individuals are provided with more individualized care and have a better chance of success in treatment.  Veterans Treatment Docket The Veterans Treatment Docket is a specialized program at the CSB that focuses on Veterans’ mental health and substance use recovery. In recognition of the toll on Veterans that accompanies military service, the mission of the Fairfax County Veterans Treatment Docket is to serve the community and increase public safety by integrating and incorporating a coordinated treatment response for justice-involved Veterans with substance abuse and/or mental health issues.  The goal of the program is for these Veterans to return to the community as healthy, goal-oriented individuals.  Want to attend a Veterans Treatment Docket Graduation? The next graduation is on November 16, 2023, at 2:00 p.m., in Courtroom 5J at the Fairfax County Courthouse, 4110 Chain Bridge Road, Fairfax, VA.  To all of the Veterans and their loved ones, thank you for your service and sacrifice.  If you or a Veteran you know is in need of crisis support, reach out to the Veterans Crisis Line at 988 and then press 1.   
October 28, 2023 Drug Take Back Day logo
October 23, 2023
You can participate in helping reduce the number of opioid overdoses on October 28. National Prescription Drug Take Back Day is a nationwide event aimed at reducing the number of expired, unused, or unwanted medications available to vulnerable individuals who may seek to misuse or abuse these substances. As opioid overdoses continue to impact individuals of all ages and backgrounds, one way to reduce access to these substances is to properly dispose of prescription medications. According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, prescription drugs thrown in the trash can be retrieved to be abused or illegally sold, and drugs flushed down toilets contaminate the water supply. Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board supports Take Back Day by coordinating collection sites and education throughout Fairfax County. Raymond Paden, Behavioral Health Prevention Program Manager shares that, “Drug Take Back Day is an effective way for community members to participate in keeping our communities safe, particularly for vulnerable populations such as youth, older adults and individuals with mental health or substance use disorders.” What to do next: Locate all medications in your household that are no longer being used. Securely store them away from children and pets. Clearly label these medications to indicate disposal. Cross out any identifiable information (names, doctor’s names, etc.). Take collected medications to a collection site on October 28 between 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. Collection Site Information Fair Oaks District Station 12300 Lee Jackson Memorial Highway, Fairfax, VA 22033 Franconia District Station 6121 Franconia Road, Alexandria, VA 22310 Mason District Station 6507 Columbia Pike, Annandale, VA 22003 Tysons Emergency 8240 Leesburg Pike, Vienna, VA 22182 Mount Vernon District Station 2511 Parkers Lane, Alexandria, VA 22306 Reston Hospital Center 1850 Town Center Parkway, Reston, VA 20190 Outside Pavilion 1, across from Parking Garage B Sully District Station 4900 Stonecroft Boulevard, Chantilly, VA 20151 West Springfield District Station 6140 Rolling Road, Springfield, VA 22152 Town of Vienna Police Department 215 Center Street South, Vienna, VA 22180 To find year-round disposal options, visit www.fairfaxcounty.gov and search “medicine disposal.” Missed Take Back Day?

September 21, 2023
The Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board (CSB) is offering its annual mini-grants for youth-led projects to reduce stigma among their peers, with support from the Suicide Prevention Alliance of Northern Virginia (SPAN), which is funded by the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services. The mini-grants will fund youth-planned, youth-led projects within Fairfax County, Fairfax City, and Falls Church City, to be completed by May 31, 2024. A total of $6,000 is available, for requests not to exceed $1,000 each. “These mini-grants offer our youth the opportunity to take ownership of the positive change they’d like to see in how we discuss and engage with mental health concerns”, says Chad Christian, WHPP team’s mini grant coordinator. "We need opportunities for our youth to grow in leadership. The youth need to be heard because their voices matter and these grants can support them as they lead the charge to reduce the stigma that is often associated with mental health concerns and aid in suicide prevention”, adds Raymond Paden, Manager of CSB Wellness, Health Promotion & Prevention services. In addition to the goal of reducing the stigma around mental illness, the mini-grants also aim to promote help-seeking behaviors. While mental health concerns and disorders are common, open and honest discussions about them are not a common occurrence. Suicide is the third leading cause of death in youth ages 10-24. "Far too often, stigma prevents people from getting the care they need and deserve. Stigma, in addition to ongoing stressors, trauma and systemic racism, along with other factors further impacts our physical and mental health,” says Paden. Proposals are due September 29, 2023, and awardees will be announced October 13, 2023. Review the Request for Proposals (also available in Word format) to find out how to apply, and email csbprevention@fairfaxcounty.gov with questions.
