For two decades, Touchstone Foundation has provided a community benefit to Lancaster County, PA as a result of the sale in 1999 of Community Hospital (an osteopathic hospital).
The Touchstone Foundation will host our first-ever Student Symposium: A Peer-to-Peer opportunity to learn about the professional and personal journey towards a license (LSW, LCSW, LPC, LMFT) in the Mental Health field at IU13 in Lancaster, PA. As we celebrate our 25th anniversary of elevating the mental wellbeing of youth and children in Lancaster County, this event will foster a community of support for students exploring careers in the mental health field.
