Lenape Valley Launches 988 Suicide And Crisis Lifeline in Bucks Co.

DOYLESTOWN, PA — When Bucks County residents call 988 for mental health or substance use assistance, the voice on the other end of the line now will belong to trained professionals from Lenape Valley Foundation.

This month, Lenape Valley Foundation began operating the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline in Bucks County. The nonprofit has hired eight crisis hotline specialists to staff the call center, which is based out of the organization’s crisis residential center, The Lodge, in Bristol.

“In the same way that 911 connects callers to physical health emergency services, 988 simplifies access to behavioral health emergency services,” said Dave Herold, chief executive officer of Lenape Valley Foundation. “This move will ensure that our neighbors in crisis can quickly reach trained professionals who provide inclusive, culturally responsive care and can connect them to the appropriate local support.”

The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline connects to a national network of more than 200 local crisis centers that provide free, confidential support to people in emotional or behavioral distress. The service was mandated in the National Suicide Hotline Designation Act, which Congress passed in 2020. In Pennsylvania, 988 became available on July 16, 2022.

The 988 service is available 24/7 through call, text, or chat. Each method offers a connection with trained behavioral health professionals who have years of experience counseling individuals and families, including veterans, Spanish speakers, and members of the LGBTQI+ community.

988 service aims to:

  • Provide immediate crisis intervention from trained mental health professionals.
  • Reduce unnecessary emergency room visits and law enforcement interactions for mental health crises.
  • Connect callers with appropriate follow-up care and community resources.
  • Offer an accessible alternative for those experiencing mental health emergencies.

“Adding 988 to LVF’s continuum of crisis care services will strengthen the resources available to residents across Bucks County, expanding access to timely and effective support in…

For years, she was a historical footnote in Philadelphia’s story of abolitionism. Finally, she’s getting her due.

In the winter of 1773, 29-year-old Dianah Nevil, a woman with Indigenous, African and European ancestry arrived in Philadelphia with her young children and made a remarkable claim– one that set her on a years-long legal journey, changed the course of her family’s life, and jump started the nation’s first white abolition society.

That winter Nathan Lowry of Flemington, N.J. sold Nevil and her family to Benjamin Bannerman, who intended to transport them to Virginia. Bannerman was a slave trader, whose wife placed an ad in the Virginia Gazette in 1768, chronicling his abusive behavior. Two years before the American War for Independence, Nevil and her four children left Flemington either because Bannerman directed her to move or because Nevil sought asylum — and traveled to Philadelphia, 50 miles away.

Upon reaching the city, sources agree, she asserted that she and her children were free people. In 1773, there were approximately 945 enslaved persons in the greater Philadelphia area. Twenty years before that, Philadelphia Yearly Meeting–an organization providing guidance to its Quaker meeting worship groups– had directed Quakers to disown members — who bought or sold Africans, and encouraged members who enslaved people to release them from enslavement.

Amid this effort, Nevil’s claimwas taken seriously.

Fifty miles to freedom

Mayor William Fisher, Quaker merchant, placed her in a workhouse located at 3rd Street and Elbow Lane (near what is now the Ben Franklin Museum and a parking lot), where two of her children died, possibly because of the poorhouse’s deplorable conditions.

A group devoted to her cause,calling themselves the Society for the Relief of Free Negroes Unlawfully Held in Bondage, hired lawyers to argue for her rights, in a case that would last months and then years.

That group, later known as the Pennsylvania…

First-Of-Its-Kind Behavioral Crisis Center Reaches Milestone In Bucks Co.

DOYLESTOWN, PA — Policymakers and behavioral health professionals from across Bucks
County gathered in Doylestown to witness the raising of a roof truss for the Bright Path Center, a celebration of the behavioral health crisis stabilization center slated to open in spring 2026.

More than two dozen officials signed a wooden support truss, which contractors then lifted into place at the new Bright Path Center. It is under construction next to the existing Lenape Valley Foundation building at 500 N. West Street.

The first-of-its-kind center in Pennsylvania will serve families and individuals from Lower Bucks and Central Bucks.

“This is a special milestone,” said Lenape Valley Foundation CEO Dave Herold. “It’s more than steel, lumber and concrete. It celebrates a vision that is coming to life, a vision of inclusive, accessible, responsive behavioral health system for the residents of Bucks County.”

Officials who spoke in support of the center included Pennsylvania State Senator Steve Santarsiero; Bucks County Commissioners Robert J. Harvie Jr., Diane M. Ellis-Marseglia, and Gene DiGirolamo; Bucks County Director of Human Services Rachael Neff; Bucks County Drug & Alcohol Commission Executive Director Diane Rosati; and Rob Hutchinson, president of the Lenape Valley Foundation board of directors.

Rachael Neff, Bucks County Director of Human Services, signs a roof truss on June 5 in Doylestown for Bright Path Center, Bucks County’s first behavioral health crisis stabilization center, slated to open in spring 2026.

Lenape Native American council suspends Chief Dwaine Perry, who says he’s victim of ‘coup’

RAMAPO — The Ramapo Lenape Tribal Council says longtime Chief Dwaine Perry has been temporarily suspended as tribal leader pending a review into financial improprieties, potential fraud, and other accusations.

“This suspension did not come from politics; it came from the repeated calls of our Elders, many of whom have been raising concerns for years,” said a statement from the council.

Perry, 77, the chief for 33 years, denied the accusations, countering that he’s a victim of an attempted coup by members of the council’s executive committee.

The two communities are the core of the tribe in the Ramapough Mountains.

Perry said he also suggested that he and the council members reveal their finances.
