Our Services

At HHCSS, our services are designed to support the growth, healing, and independence of every individual we serve. We are committed to promoting recovery, resilience, and empowerment, helping clients build the tools they need to achieve self-determination and live as independently and confidently as possible.

We recognize that access to quality care should never be limited by financial barriers. That’s why we offer services on a sliding scale fee, ensuring affordability and equity for all. No one will be denied services due to an inability to pay.

Our diverse range of programs reflects our belief that with the right support, every person can thrive — regardless of where they are on their journey.

Programs

Helping Hands School & Community-Based Program (HHSCBP)

Empowering Children and Adolescents in Everyday Environments
The Helping Hands School & Community-Based Program (HHSCBP) is designed for children and adolescents between the ages of 4 and 17. This program focuses on supporting not only the child but their family as a whole—recognizing that healing and progress happen best when everyone is involved.

Services are delivered by a skilled and compassionate team, including:

• Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs)

• Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs)

• Qualified Mental Health Professionals (QMHPs)

• Community Support Specialists

Children enrolled in this program receive services under Senate Bill 58 (SB58), which promotes a collaborative and individualized approach to care. What makes HHSCBP unique is our commitment to meeting children in their natural environments—whether that be at school, in the home, or even a local library. By working with children in spaces where they feel most comfortable, we’re able to build trust, reduce barriers, and promote long-term emotional growth and stability.

Lynell’s House

Supporting Adults Through Every Stage of Life
Lynell’s House is the adult services program at HHCSS, created for clients between the ages of 18 and 99. Whether you're a young adult navigating the transition from adolescence or an individual seeking ongoing support in adulthood, Lynell’s House provides a compassionate space to heal, grow, and thrive.

Participants in this program receive services from a dedicated team of professionals, including:

• Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs)

• Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs)

• Qualified Mental Health Professionals (QMHPs)

• Peer Providers and Family Partners

Services offered through Lynell’s House are similar to those in our HHSCBP (Helping Hands School & Community-Based Program) and include therapeutic support, skills training, peer mentorship, and community-based interventions tailored to adult needs.

Lynell’s House holds special meaning at HHCSS. It was named in honor of Mrs. Lynell Burrows, the late grandmother of our Clinical Director, Ms. Brittany Mayo. Mrs. Burrows was a beacon of hope in her Washington, D.C. community—welcoming all who needed help with open arms. Her legacy of compassion, strength, and service lives on through this program.
