Maintaining Mental Health in a Pandemic: Stories from the Delaware COVID-19 Strategic Response Fund

In the Season 2 premiere of our Building Opportunity in Delaware podcast, Rob McCreary and Kathleen Seipel from the Family Counseling Center of St. Paul’s join us to talk about providing emotional and behavioral health services to uninsured families in low-income communities in Delaware.

The Family Counseling Center of St. Paul’s received $43,000 in grants from the Delaware COVID-19 Strategic Response Fund to continue providing mental health and family counseling services statewide during the pandemic. Rob and Kathleen serve many of our most essential workers — custodians, caregivers, supermarket clerks — who are members of Delaware’s Spanish-speaking community and find themselves in new and stressful conditions both at work and at home.

All six episodes in this second season of Building Opportunity will feature stories about how the Delaware COVID-19 Strategic Response Fund has helped nonprofits meet the needs of our community during this crisis. DCF President & CEO Stuart Comstock-Gay is our host.
