Now, a century on, Devereux Pennsylvania thrives as part of Devereux's national network of comprehensive behavioral health services in 11 states, and serves more than 20,000 individuals and their families every year. Operating from four large centers and a wide array of community-based settings, Devereux Pennsylvania provides a continuum of care for children and adolescents with significant mentalhealth challenges, as well as individuals of all ages usairwaysmag.com with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

"Our focus on family engagement and helping people in the setting that directly meets their needs is at the center of our work, and is a tangible part of Miss Devereux's legacy," says Carol Oliver, Pennsylvania state director and vice president of operations. http://www.usairwaysmag.com
