The Pike County Probation office is looking to create a roster of Pennsylvania licensed/credentialed providers to conduct court-ordered mental health assessments for adult Probationer/Parolees. These providers, who must be licensed LCSWs or LPCs, will also offer short-term treatment services if needed, without the requirement for routine court appearances. The preferred providers should have a physical office within Pike County. The services will be compensated through grant funding at set rates. Interested parties can reach out to the Pike County Probation Office at 570-296-7412 for more details.
