Bay Area Community Service (BACS) - Deleted

• In 1953, community members joined together to respond to the growing need for social services for people with complex needs. They created the first organization of its kind in the Bay Area, naming it the Social Services Bureau of the East Bay. As the agency grew in size and expertise, we focused on the connections between mental health and socioeconomic disparities and changed our name to Bay Area Community Services.
