Clinical and Support Options, Inc. (C.S.O.) provides a full range of comprehensive mental health, crisis stabilization, psychiatric and counseling services to adults, children, families, couples and seniors throughout Franklin, Hampshire and Hamden Counties. This continuum of care is available at facilities in Greenfield, Orange, Athol, Northampton and Springfield.

The organization and its affiliates employ Counselors, Nurses, Outreach Workers, Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Rehabilitation Specialists, Social Workers, Technicians and Managers at its vaious sites.   These professionals assist individuals and families with behavioral and mental health problems.

C.S.O. began as the Franklin County Mental Health Association, established in 1954,and incorporated in 1955, by 22 concerned citizens interested in providing for the mental health needs of families in Franklin County.  From its early days as a small child  guidance clinic, the agency has expanded into a comprehensive behavioral health corporation today.

Our multifaceted organization operates programs that serve all ages, from preschool children to homebound seniors.   Thousands of families have been helped by our professional staff during the past 50 years.  We are proud to be a part of the communities in which we serve.

Part of our annual operating budget comes from the Massachusetts Department of Mental Health.  Managed care contracts, third-party insurance payments and client fees supplement the remaining balance, along with support from the United Way of Franklin County, Franklin County Home Care, and various fundraising efforts.

We accept third party payments through Medicaid, Medicare, Blue Cross and a variety of other insurance plans.  There is a sliding fee scale for clients who do not have insurance, or whose insurance does not cover all charges.  No one is turned away for lack of funds.
