Welcome
The Human Services Center was
created in 1982 under an initiative of the Allegheny County Commissioners.
Our Mission
The Human Services Center
Corporation improves the quality of life for children, adults, and families
in the Mon Valley area. It fulfills this mission in four ways:
 | Serving as a collaborative leader by promoting and supporting a
network of providers within and outside the walls of its multi-purpose
center. |
| Serving as a bridge between human service organizations and those who
develop policies and funding that impact the quality of life in the Mon
Valley area. |
| Monitoring community needs and initiating innovative strategies to
fill service gaps. |
| Providing essential services to both community members and human service
organizations. |
As a private, non profit 501c3 organization, the Center is owned and
operated by the Human Services Center Corporation (HSCC). The
following core programs of the HSCC are detailed on our website:

gaps in services (primarily in Employment and Training, Health, Housing, and
Youth) and are based in or have a substantial service presence in the Mon
Valley.

substance abuse. Over fifty agencies work together, allowing participants to
