TrueNorth Wellness Services Expands Rural Behavioral Health Care in Fulton County with Technology

MCCONNELLSBURG, Pa. - EntSun -- TrueNorth Wellness Services, a leading trauma-informed care agency, has announced a significant investment in rural health services at its McConnellsburg office,
made possible through federal funding support.

Since establishing its presence in the region in 2006, and opening the McConnellsburg office in 2011, TrueNorth has remained deeply committed to providing behavioral health, counseling,
and emergency crisis services to rural communities across Fulton and Franklin counties.

To bridge geographic gaps and better reach residents in remote areas, TrueNorth utilized new
grant funding to implement critical technology upgrades. These enhancements directly support approximately 650 community members annually by expanding access to essential care through multiple avenues:

• Mobile Peer Support: Upgrades enable mobile peer support services, allowing staff to

meet and support neighbors directly across Fulton County.

• Virtual & Onsite Counseling: Enhanced technology supports the growing demand for

virtual connections with TrueNorth counselors alongside traditional onsite services,
