Human Services | About Us

About Us

The City of Tallahassee is a leading community partner that actively connects residents to resources that remove economic and social barriers. Through the Human Services Division, the City builds community resilience through a trauma-informed safety net, self-sufficiency, and wellness programs delivered in partnership with local nonprofit agencies.

The City's primary mechanism for providing human services is through the Community Human Service Partnership (CHSP)), a partnership with Leon County that invests in a broad range of human service programs implemented by local nonprofit organizations. In addition to CHSP, the City implements several targeted initiatives to advance strategic priorities in homelessness, neighborhood resilience, mental health, and nonprofit agency capacity building.

In 2019, the City Commission established the Bridge Program to help build capacity for small startup nonprofit human service agencies so they can transition into the CHSP process.

The division administers Emergency Solutions Grants and some Community Development Block Grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to support homelessness coordination and programming at Neighborhood Resilience Hubs, also known as Service Centers.

News & Notices

City of Tallahassee Launches New Neighborhood-Based Mental Health Pilot Program

The City of Tallahassee is piloting a new program in partnership with the Apalachee Center to bring mental health services closer to neighborhoods. Through the new program at the Lincoln Center, residents can participate in up to three free one-on-one counseling sessions with a certified mental health provider, regardless of health insurance status. More information about the program is available in our latest news release.

City Launches Mental Health Crisis Response Unit

The new Tallahassee Emergency Assessment Mobile Unit (TEAM) is actively responding to non-violent 9-1-1 calls for service with individuals experiencing a mental health crisis. The pilot program was approved last fall as the City Commission voted to implement special mental health initiatives in response to an emergent mental health need during the COVID-19 pandemic and other critical public safety incidents. More Information about TEAM is available in our latest news release.
