Providers Directory A Resource Guide to the North Side of Pittsburgh, PA First Edition, 2002 with funding from The Buhl Foundation The Pittsburgh Mercy Foundation Mercy Behavioral Health with support from Contact Pittsburgh/HelpLine United Way of South Western Pennsylvania The Birmingham Foundation i Dear Directory Users, After more than a year and a half of effort by many dedicated people, this directory is finally complete! Gathering and organizing all of the information contained here was an enormous undertaking for the team that created this book. I and many others thank them for their effort and for the new resource they have created for all of us. Now, for the first time all of those who provide valuable services (from health and human service providers to churches, from community development corporations to cultural institutions) can communicate easily with each other. It is my hope that this wealth of information, and the collaborative effort it took to produce it, fosters new partnerships and relationships among those who work to create a better quality of life for so many on the North Side. My thanks to the North Side Service Providers Network, and especially Jane Miller of Mercy Behavioral Health, for having the vision, patience, and persistence to build this new resource for the community. Sincerely, Roy Lahet, Executive Director Mercy Behavioral Health August, 2002 ii USING THIS DIRECTORY The creators of the directory intended for this book to be easy and intuitive to use. It's organized into three parts: Part I: A listing of organizations by service type (see below) Part II: Complete program descriptions, organized alphabetically Part III: An alphabetical listing of all organizations 1. Aging 2. Addiction Services 3. Clothing/household 4. Corrections 5. Culture 6. Education 7. Employment/training 8. Family Support 9. Food 10. Government offices 11. Healthcare 12. Housing 13. Legal 14. Mental Health/Mental Retardation 15. Neighborhoods 16. Recreation Centers 17. Utility Assistance 18. Victims 19. Worship 20. Youth 21. Other iii DISCLAIMER All of the information and most of the language here was provided by the organizations themselves, which accounts for the varying styles and lengths of service descriptions. The editors of this book only made changes for clarity and certain grammatical errors. While much effort was put into ensuring the accuracy of the information here, there will probably be some mistakes. They could have come from the original source (hand written survey forms the providers filled out), from the data entry process, or from just plain human error, which we are all subject to periodically. Finally, over the shelf life of the directory, this information will begin to 'decay,' some say at the rate of 10% per year. Our apologies for any inconveniences caused by these errors. No people's names or e-mail addresses are included here because the creators felt they would change more often than the basic information included here. INAPPROPRIATE USES The use of this information for marketing of goods and services violates the spirit in which it was gathered and the purposes it was intended to serve: to improve communication between the organizations listed and their delivery of services. Resale of this directory or the information contained within is strictly prohibited. This Directory is provided due to the generosity of The Buhl Foundation, The Pittsburgh Mercy Foundation, and Mercy Behavioral Health. Any reproduction of this Directory must be in total.
