Appleseed Community Mental Health Center

Appleseed Community Mental Health Center Appleseed Community Mental Health Center, Inc. is a not for profit community mental health agency.

Appleseed walks with families and individuals on their journey to live healthy, whole, and productive lives by offering comprehensive and integrated behavioral health, housing, outreach & prevention, substance-use disorder, and victim services. Appleseed wishes to maximize an individual’s existing strengths, focus on solutions and create a supportive environment for people suffering from mental illness. This is in contrast to focusing on existing weaknesses, problems, and creating an environment not chosen by the individual. Appleseed strives to serve individuals in the least restrictive, most appropriate environment possible. Appleseed seeks to address the needs of all Ashland County residents, including the needs of the general public and the needs of people with severe mental disability, as identified both in the Ashland County Board of Alcohol, Drug Addiction, and Mental Health Services’ community plan and through Appleseed’s needs assessment activities.

A Huge Congratulations to Our Executive Director, Jerry Strausbaugh!

Today, at the Ashland County Mental Health & Recovery Board Luncheon, Jerry was honored with the Martha Philips Jorden Beacon Award!

This award recognizes outstanding leaders who embody compassion, commitment, and service—helping individuals in our community lead full, independent lives while navigating mental health and substance use challenges.

Jerry has quietly shaped Appleseed through steady, humble leadership. His leadership is never loud or flashy—it’s grounded in consistency, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to people. He never loses sight of what matters most: people.

We’re so proud and grateful to have such a genuine and dedicated leader guiding Appleseed forward. Thank you, Jerry, for all that you do—for our staff, our clients, and our community.
