Division of Mental Health
The County Mental Health Division directly oversees County funded community
mental health services. In conjunction with the State Division of Mental Health Services
(NJ DMHS), the County Mental Health Administrator jointly oversees all State
contracted community mental health services. The County MH Administrator serves as
the Director of the Division. Partially funded through a State salary match, in addition
to the co-administration role, the Administrator directs activities for the County MH
Board, a twelve member Board mandated by Statute and appointed by the County
Executive to provide community based oversight and guidance for these services. In
addition to the activities of the Board, the Division convenes regular meetings of the
Board’s Professional Advisory Committee. Also mandated by statute, the PAC meets
regularly to share information and to provide a forum for improving collaboration and
services for consumers and family members. Comprised of representatives of all State
and County-funded agencies plus others serving the population, e.g. Board of Social
Services, City of Trenton, etc., current activities for the PAC include housing, service
accessibility, transportation, and advocacy needs. In addition, the Board supports
such other community activities as out-reach to the local faith community and public
awareness activities. Working jointly with the County Division of Community and
Senior Services’ Office of Addiction Services, the Division also sponsors a Task Force
focused on the unique needs of consumers with co-occurring mental illness and
substance use disorders. Additionally, the County Mental Health Administrator is
responsible for the deployment and supervision of credentialed Disaster Response
Crisis Counselors during times of disaster, as well as oversight of the Mercer County
Community Organizations Active in Disaster (COAD).
Since the mid 90’s, the Division has also housed the Traumatic Loss Prevention Services
Program, which supports activities jointly with the County’s Traumatic Loss Coalition.
TL/PS provides parent and community education programs aimed at reducing risk
factors for teenage suicide in the County. (SeeTL/PS).
In addition to these activities, the Administrator is regularly involved in other planning
and coordinative activities for youth, senior citizens, the homeless and other
populations in human services. This includes the Systems Review Committee, an acute
care oversight and review group required by the State Screening law, local groups
such as the HSAC and Youth Services Commission and service on State planning
groups in areas as diverse as medication adherence and community resource
development.
The Mental Health Division administers the County Mental Health Program Area Bud-
get. This Budget area includes a number of services jointly funded along with the State
and additional services deemed necessary by the County.

Mercer County Traumatic Loss Coalition
Mercer County’s Traumatic Loss Prevention Services (TLPS), staffed by a Project
Coordinator, provides three main community services. First, TLPS provides educational
training workshops and conferences to equip professionals with the knowledge
necessary to respond appropriately to crisis events and to minimize personal trauma
and the threat of contagion among youth. Second, TLPS holds monthly Traumatic Loss
Coalition (TLC) meetings to maintain community cohesion and sustain suicide issue
awareness, track traumatic events within Mercer County and respond to diverse
community needs affecting youth (TLPS is not a crisis responder nor a counseling or
intervention service). Third, TLPS assists schools in preparing their emergency crisis
plan using the Managing Sudden Traumatic Loss in the Schools Manual. The Traumatic
Loss Coalition is a voluntary group of dedicated professionals, community members,
and involved residents, formed in 1995 as a result of a series of tragic losses including a
number of serial suicides among teenagers which occurred in Mercer County. Current
membership is comprised of many different sectors of the community - law
enforcement, education systems, mental health professionals, private agencies, public
officials, hospitals, local health departments, members of the clergy and others. The TLC
meets monthly to discuss traumatic events with particular impact on teenagers and to
identify the potential for increased cooperation and collaboration for improved
response in future incidents.
Together, the TLPS and the TLC have hosted conferences covering various topics such
as suicidal risk-assessment for youth, compassion fatigue for caregivers, adolescent
self-injury, adolescent brain development, dual diagnosis - co-occurring disorders,
adolescent depression and coordinating the aftermath of a traumatic event. Technical
assistance has been provided to interested school systems and municipalities in order
to make their crisis response systems more effective in the event that a traumatic loss
occurs. Training has been offered for the media on how to report on a traumatic loss
event appropriately in order to avoid a contagion effect among other youth (exposure
to suicides, homicides and other violent losses affecting the school or community may
add to a child’s level of risk). Therefore, the name “Traumatic Loss Coalition” denotes the
Coalition’s efforts to mitigate the effects of all such events on local teenagers through
prevention and “post”-vention activities.
For more information contact the Traumatic Loss Prevention Services Office at 609-278-
7924. Our office hours are Monday through Friday 8:30 - 4:30.

Office on Addiction Services
The Mercer County Office on Addiction Services is the agency responsible for the
planning, administration and coordination of alcohol and drug abuse services in the
County. The Office was established in the late 1970’s and is a unit of the Department of
Human Services.
In January of 1981, a citizen advisory committee was established to advise the County
Executive and the Board of Chosen Freeholders regarding the delivery of coordinated
alcoholism services in Mercer County. It was called the Mercer County Alcoholism
Advisory Committee. By 1983, Public Law 1983, Chapter 531 was passed. This
increased the responsibility of the advisory committee. This law established Local
Advisory Committees on Alcohol in each county. The Mercer County Advisory
Committee was designated as the Local Advisory Committee on Alcohol (LACA). The
LACA was required to develop an annual comprehensive plan and recommend the
distribution of monies derived from the Chapter 531 funds. They continue to do so
today under the name of LACADA, the Local Advisory Committee on Alcohol and Drug
Abuse.
To access treatment, a citizen must be a Mercer County resident, have no insurance or
be underinsured and be indigent. To obtain services please contact the Office on
Addiction Services at (609)989-6897.

For more information on the municipal alliance serving your area, contact the Mercer
County Municipal Alliance Coordinator at (609)989-6452.

Prevention Services
The Office on Addiction Services is responsible for the alcohol and drug prevention
Municipal Alliance Grant funded by the Governor’s Council on Alcoholism and Drug
Abuse. Each Municipality has a drug and alcohol prevention alliance that uses
volunteers to raise awareness and programs on the dangers of alcohol, tobacco, and
other drug use, misuse, and abuse. Community involvement greatly enhances these
prevention and education programs.

Definitions of Addiction Treatment Services

Withdrawal Management provides supervised withdrawal and detoxification from
alcohol and/or other drugs. The client is introduced to recovery concepts and additional
treatment services, as recommended.

addiction treatment, which includes medical support and social services. Treatment
services can range from a 14-day stay to a 45-day stay with up to a 90-day stay for
co-occurring disorder clients.

Outpatient/Intensive Outpatient Treatment Programs include assessment,

individual and group therapy, family therapy and referral to other appropriate
services.

persons and a sober return to the community. Clients receive an intensive,
individualized treatment plan of individual and group counseling, vocational guidance,
career planning, and educational, life skills and/or employment opportunities.
