Merakey Valley Street

Helping young people build resilience, healthier relationships, and a stronger future, Merakey Valley Street is an outpatient and community-based child and family behavioral health center for children, adolescents, young adults, and families. They address emotional difficulties, behavioral concerns, autism-related needs, family conflict, school challenges, and social-development needs through therapy, psychiatry, family care, and youth-focused services.

Strengthen Skills for Daily Life

They provide outpatient therapy and psychiatry, individual and group counseling, family-based treatment, school and community care, crisis guidance, early intervention, and transition planning. Care reflects each young person’s developmental stage, clinical needs, strengths, and family circumstances, helping them build coping skills, healthier relationships, stronger school participation, and everyday confidence.

Create Stronger Paths Forward

Located along Valley Street, this center is part of Merakey, a nonprofit dedicated to helping people, families, and communities. Merakey began in Philadelphia in 1969 as The Northwest Center, later became NHS Human Services, and has grown into a multi-state provider serving 12 states across behavioral health, autism, addiction recovery, intellectual and developmental disability, education, foster care, aging, and veteran services. At this location, they remain distinct from Carlisle’s adult behavioral health centers while supporting resilience, family wellbeing, and hope for healthier futures.
