LSF Health Systems is one of seven behavioral health Managing Entities (ME) contracted by the Florida Department of Children and Families to manage the state-funded system of behavioral health care for people who face poverty and are without insurance. LSF Health Systems serves a 23-county region in Northeast and North Central Florida. Our providers care for people who face the most vulnerable situations and do not have insurance. This includes children, adults, and families who lack the financial resources to afford care. Our goal is to ensure that every child and adult in need receive the right service, at the right time, and in the right setting.

Under the leadership of Vicky Phares, Ph.D., a tenured professor in the Psychology Department at University of South Florida, the USF Psychology Dept. and the USF Psychology Student Diversity Committee have held holiday donation drives for refugees & asylum-seeking families for the past 18 years.
This USF Psychology #Holiday Donation Drive has helped hundreds of refugee & asylum-seeking families with items according to their needs—from toys for refugee children, gift cards for refugee families, as well as books and tablets to enable refugee children & youth to continue their education during this pandemic year.
We are so grateful for Dr. Phares's generosity and all of the faculty and students in the USF Psychology Department. Their contributions help refugee families in our community have a brighter holiday season.

Although the holidays are a time to gather with loved ones, because of the pandemic, many seniors are staying isolated.
According to AARP, a recent survey they conducted showed two thirds of adults say they are experiencing social isolation and 66 % say their anxiety levels have increased because of the pandemic. Adding the holidays on top of that can have a huge impact on someone’s mental health.
