ABOUT US
The Lebanon County Council of Human Service Agencies (LCCHSA) is a professional networking organization that has been in Lebanon County for over 30 years. We consist of a group of professionals who meet monthly to share updates on our programs, events and offer support for the clients we serve. Meaningful work results from these face-to-face monthly meetings where professionals have the opportunity to network and often collaborate on projects that benefit the citizens of Lebanon County. In addition to sharing monthly updates, we host a monthly speaker or training relevant to our community. It is an excellent opportunity to learn what is happening in Lebanon County. Lunch is available for $15 per person. We meet the second Friday of the month at 12:00 p.m. at Hebron Catering and Events (701 E. Walnut Street, Lebanon). RSVP by noon the Wednesday prior to the meeting. Follow us on Facebook

Connected Together Community Board works in partnership with various community agencies to analyze data, better understand what risk factors face our community and to create a step-by-step Community Action Plan that can be used by any organization in Lebanon County to secure grants or to start up a collaborative partnership to address any identified underlying issues within our community. Our facilitator works with community agencies and our board members to implement the Communities that Care process within our community. Please come out and learn more about the work that we are doing in the community and how your organization might benefit from this work!

CASA of Lancaster and Lebanon Counties’ mission is to provide a qualified and compassionate court-appointed volunteer advocate to every child in need who is abused and neglected, to ensure the fundamental human right to have a safe, nurturing, and permanent home is met. CASA stands for Court Appointed Special Advocate. It is both the name of our program and what we call our volunteers. Our program is a network of nearly 750 community based programs throughout the country. Our local program began in Lancaster in 2005 and in Lebanon in 2022. Today we collectively serve across both counties about 164 children by 111 active CASAs.
