Plans for a far more effective and comprehensive way to help those struggling with mental illness and substance abuse disorders are progressing in Doylestown, according to experts in the field.

Those involved with the innovative effort to create the Bucks County Behavioral Health Crisis Center recently gathered at Lenape Valley Foundation to share details about the first-of-its kind facility in Pennsylvania.

Sharon Curran, Lenape Valley Foundation’s CEO, said the pandemic was illustrative in showing how many in crisis were not always receiving the appropriate care in the appropriate place.

“The ER was their first touch point with behavioral services,” said Curran. While the emergency room can provide critical, immediate support, the new crisis stabilization center, she explained, will bring together behavioral health’s “best practices” to address the wide range of needs for those in crisis.

“Under one roof, the center will provide all the components of crisis service that are now fractured across our system, including mental health, drug and alcohol, intellectual disabilities, first responders, law enforcement, physical health, homeless outreach and other services,” the Doylestown-based behavioral health foundation said.

“It’s creative and bold,” said Doylestown Health CEO Jim Brexler, of the ambitious plan.

The 22,000-square-foot crisis stabilization center will be located next to Lenape Valley Foundation on the campus of Doylestown Hospital on West State Street. It’s the last piece of developable land the healthcare system owns, noted Brexler, citing the critical importance of the project.

The collaborative undertaking brought together Lenape Valley Foundation, Doylestown Health, Bucks County Department of Behavioral Health/Developmental Programs, Bucks County Drug and Alcohol Commission, Magellan Behavioral Health and the National Alliance of Mental Illness. Each is playing a pivotal role in the highly anticipated and greatly needed center, officials said.

“This is such a smart decision,” said Rachael Neff, Bucks County…

Senior Saahil Nagar scored the only goal of the game, in the second half, as the 16th seed in the South Jersey Boys Soccer Coaches Cup, stunned previously unbeaten St. Augustine, 1-0 in Richland. The Hermits are the top seed in the tournament and ranked No. 7 in the NJ.com Top 20.

Nagar has scored just four goals on the season but his latest marked the second time in four days that he scored the only goal (against Moorestown) in a Lenape win. Lenape advances to a quarterfinal road game against the winner of Saturday’s game between Cedar Creek and West Deptford.

Lenape (10-4-1 overall) matched its most wins in a season since 2018 and is making its first appearance in the Coaches Cup since 2014 and first win since 2012. Evan Gonzalez earned the shutout for Lenape.

St. Augustine opened the season with 13 wins, outscoring its opponents, 47-4. The Hermits hadn’t allowed a goal since Sept. 28, a span of five games.

13-Delsea 1, 4-Rancocas Valley 1

(Delsea advances in PKs 4-3)

Junior Gavin Reissek scored a second-half goal to force extra time and Delsea prevailed 4-3 in a penalty-kick shootout in Eastampton to advance to a quarterfinal next week. Upset-minded Delsea will travel meet to the winner of Saturday’s Palmyra-Clearview first-round game.

Delsea (11-2-1) needed seven rounds of PKs to secure the win.

Rancocas Valley fell to 10-3-2 on the season.

11-Ocean City 3, 6-Eastern 1

Ocean City continued the trend of lower seeds prevailing in first-round action with a pair of second-half goals to break a 1-all halftime deadlock in Voorhees. The Red Raiders (10-3) will meet the winner of Saturday’s Kingsway-Shawnee opening-round game.

David Obando scored on a feed by Demi Garita to provide Eastern’s part of the first-half tie. The Vikings are 10-4-1.

The Lenape Valley Patriots will head out on the road to face off against the Sussex County Tech at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. The matchup should be an exciting one, as these teams are ranked near one another in New Jersey (Lenape Valley is ranked 175th, while Sussex County Tech is ranked 171st).

The third road contest was the charm for Lenape Valley, as they earned their first road win of the season. They came out on top against Wallkill Valley by a score of 23-14 on Saturday.

Meanwhile, Sussex County Tech had already won three in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 28.3 points), and they went ahead and made it four on Friday. They didn’t even let Kittatinny Regional onto the board and left with a 14-0 win.

Sussex County Tech got their victory on the backs of several key players, but it was Brian Gruber out in front who rushed for 153 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.3 yards per carry. Gruber is on a roll when it comes to rushing yards, as he’s now rushed for 100 or more in the last three games he’s played. Andrew Baker also helped out as he racked up 102 rushing yards.

The team’s defense also helped out by holding Kittatinny Regional to a paltry 249 yards. A big part of that defensive dominance came down to Sussex County Tech’s ability to keep the quarterback under pressure: the team laid him out four times before it was all said and done. Leading the way was Gavin Mericle and his two sacks.

Their wins bumped Lenape…

For expedience’s sake: the Federation of Aboriginal Nations of the Americas is FANA.

The SandHill Band of Lenape and Cherokee Indians( NY, NJ. PA) is SandHill.

Returning again to the First Annual Meshanicut Cultural Placemaking Confestival Weekend held on the weekend of August 17th, 2023 in Providence Rhode Island, where a series of historical moments occurred for the member Tribes of FANA.  I was honored to attend that weekend.

(Please read the article titled FANA’s 1st ANNUAL Meshanicut Cultural Placemaking Confestival in Providence, Rhode Island published Monday, Sept 11, 2023, to read about the purpose for that weekend)

A historic moment occurred when FANA,  its Allies, and the Representatives of the Saamaka Tribe signed the FANA

For those of you who are not familiar with the Saamaka Tribe allow me to deviate from the Treaty to tell you a little about them,  The Saamaka Tribe is one of six Maroon groups and they inhabit the Upper-Suriname River Region in a country called Suriname.  They are the descendants of captured Africans who escaped from the Dutch Colonial plantations and settled deep within the rain forests of South America. There are some Saamaka who live in French Guiana which borders Suriname.

They have inhabited this area since the late 1600s and through the early part of the 1700s when the escaped slaves settled there. They are descendants of captured West and Central African people who were loaded onto slave ships and had been sold to Europeans in Suriname during the above dates.

Coming back to the present day. I have discovered that many of the contracts and Treaties can be rather complicated to understand.  So I am going to make the explanation simple.

The recent treaty establishes the ability for FANA and the Saamaka to develop trade routes for…
