Fees are based on income, family size, and the ability to pay. Payments are accepted from private insurance companies, Medicaid and Medicare. The agency will not refuse services due to a person's inability to pay. Services are subsidized by the County of Summit Alcohol, Drug Addiction and Mental Health Services Board.
When a person comes to the agency, his or her strengths and needs are evaluated. The individual is then assigned to the appropriate treatment team. Each team is led by a psychiatrist and includes nurses, community rehabilitation specialists, as well as experts in counseling, testing, vocational and residential services. Services combine psychiatric treatment with independent life skills training with the intent of giving individuals the opportunity to live independently in the community.
Community Support Services appreciates all donations whether they come to the agency in dollars, goods, services and/or volunteer hours. Donations are used to advance programs that have a direct impact on the lives of individuals who could not otherwise progress on their own. Monetary donations can be sent to Community Support Services, c/o the Development Department, 150 Cross Street, Akron, Ohio 44311.
