Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a leader whose vision for equality, justice, and compassion continues to inspire us every day.

At CSG, inclusivity isn't just a value — it's baked into the foundation of who we are. It shapes our culture, drives our services, and guides how we show up for the communities we serve. We firmly believe that everyone should have the opportunity to reach their full potential.

On this day of reflection and service, we recommit ourselves to doing what is right. Not just when it's convenient: always. 🤝

"The time is always right to do what is right." — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Are you ready to make your mental health a priority this year, but not sure where to start?

For many people, the hardest part is simply knowing how to take the first step. Do you need a referral? Is your situation “serious enough” to reach out? Will you need medication?

Here’s the truth: you don’t need to have everything figured out. You just need a good partner to meet you where you are.

At CSG, we help people navigate mental health care every day. From answering questions to finding the proper treatment plans, we provide resources that meet them where they are. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, feeling overwhelmed, or just sensing that something isn’t quite right, please know that support is available.

If you’re ready to learn more, take a first step for yourself, or help someone else get started, we’re here to guide you through what comes next.

One conversation can make all the difference. Visit CSGonline.org or call 877.907.7970 to get started.

A littler reminder for you on this National Motivation & Inspiration Day ✨

Kind words matter. Especially the ones we say to ourselves. Practicing positive self-talk through simple things like leaving yourself encouraging post-it notes or gratitude journaling can help build confidence, focus, and momentum toward your goals! Research shows that positive self-talk is associated with greater resilience, improved performance, and better overall mental health. 🧠💚

The same is true when we encourage others. A supportive word, a reminder of someone’s strengths, or a moment of kindness can go a long way.

Today, take a moment to share an encouraging word with yourself and with the people around you. It doesn't have to be big or overwhelming - small affirmations can lead to meaningful progress.

Today marks a fresh start. A moment to smile, breathe, and step into 2026 with hope and intention. 🧘

Whether you’re focusing on your mental health, supporting a loved one, or simply trying to be a little kinder to yourself, we hope this year brings you health, happiness, and moments of real connection.

Try not to let the big goals and ambitions of this holiday overwhelm you! Try to remember:
✨ Small steps forward still count.
✨ A little kindness - to yourself and others - goes a long way.
✨ Everyone deserves care and compassion.

From all of us at CSG, we wish you a happy, healthy and hopeful New Year! 💚

Here’s to a bright, healthy, and hopeful New Year for all. ✨

There's something about the sounds of laughter, carols and the bustle of family and visitors as they come and go. Or maybe you relish those quiet moments in between.

But for a lot of teens and young adults, the quiet calm never comes.

If you've got a teen or young adult that seems more withdrawn, irritable, or overstimulated this season, even when they’re alone, it might be more than just stress or “a phase.” Sometimes those changes are early signs that something deeper is going on.

CSG’s EPIC Program (Early Psychosis Intervention Collaborative) was developed for instances like these. EPIC supports teens and young adults who may be experiencing early symptoms of psychosis, with care that’s compassionate, coordinated, and centered on the whole person.

If your teen or college-aged child doesn’t quite feel like themselves lately, don't be afraid to start the conversation.

We’ll be here to help you figure out what comes next.

While the holiday season is often filled with celebrations and joy, many people quietly experience stress, grief, loneliness, or worsening mental health symptoms. If that sounds like you, or someone in your life, it's ok. Feeling this way is normal and reaching out for help when you need it is a strong and important first step.

Here are a few signs you may benefit from extra support this holiday season:
🔸 Persistent sadness, anxiety, or irritability
🔸 Feeling overwhelmed or unable to cope with daily life
🔸 Changes in sleep, appetite, or routine
🔸 Withdrawing from friends, family, or activities
🔸 Feeling hopeless, stuck, or “not like yourself”
🔸 Struggling with substance use or unhealthy coping
🔸 Increased stress while caregiving or supporting a loved one

If these symptoms sound familiar, don't feel ashamed or just try to ignore them. Remember that help is available - even during the holidays.

CSG offers different kinds of support that can help you get through an often stressful time of year. We provide outpatient therapy, psychiatry services and referrals to help you or your loved ones find the right level of care.

Here are a few ways to get started -
📧 Contact CSG’s referral team at referrals@csgonline.org
📞 Call CSG for availability and next steps: 1.877.907.7970
🩺 Reach out to your existing provider to discuss changes in symptoms
❤️ If you’re in crisis or concerned for your safety, call or text 988 immediately

You don’t have to navigate this season alone. Reaching out is a sign of strength, and we’re here to help you find your footing, one step at a time. 💙

December 3rd is International Day of Persons with Disabilities 🌍 This global observance was established by the United Nations to promote understanding, inclusion, and respect for the dignity and rights of people with disabilities. All of which align directly with our mission here at CSG.

Our approach is built around supporting the whole person. By empowering independence, nurturing mental and emotional well-being, and helping people thrive in their communities. That's where real impact happens.

Today and every day, we celebrate the strengths, achievements, and contributions of individuals with disabilities. Join us in honoring this important day and the incredible individuals we proudly serve. 💙

This week, we were honored to host state legislators for their annual visit to our CSG Bakery in Sunbury, PA. We're always grateful for an opportunity to share how our amazing team members make a difference in the community.

Not only does the Bakery create delicious treats for businesses throughout the Susquehanna Valley, it's an opportunity for individuals to learn important job skills and tools for success. From communication to time management, each individual works to build confidence and grow as a team.

“We want people to have the understanding that, yes, people have disabilities, but that doesn’t mean they’re not capable adults who can do a great job at many things,” said CSG Mental Health Services Director, Jen McLaughlin.

Feeling the holiday stress starting to creep in?

If this time of year feels heavy or isolating, you're not alone. The holidays can bring joy, but they can also bring pressure, exhaustion, or loneliness. 😮‍💨

Here are a few reminders and tips to help you care for yourself and your mental health this season:

1: You don’t have to do it all. 😰 Give yourself permission to simplify - whether that means saying no to an event, scaling back plans, or asking for help. ✨ Focus on what matters most, not what looks perfect.

2: It’s okay to protect your peace. 🧘‍♀️ Limit time or topics that cause stress, and take breaks when you need them. 💚 Kindness includes being kind to yourself.

3: Happiness doesn’t have to be big or loud. 🌲 A quiet walk outside, a favorite song, or connecting with someone you trust can help bring calm and perspective. 🌟 Small joys can make a big difference.

The holidays can bring up a lot of feelings, making it hard to cherish the bright moments. But that doesn't mean you have to navigate them alone. If you or someone you love is struggling, reach out. This is a season where help, hope, and understanding may be the gifts that are needed most. 🫶
