PFCS to Change Name to CoveCare Center

Putnam Family & Community Services (PFCS) is proud to announce that beginning on July 31, 2017, the agency will be known as CoveCare Center.

As CoveCare Center, the agency will continue to provide the same level of accessible, affordable, quality services provided by its highly regarded, experienced staff. The agency’s mission also remains the same: To partner with individuals, families, and the community to foster hope, wellness and recovery, and to restore quality of life by addressing mental health needs, substance use, and social and emotional issues.

The staff at CoveCare Center imagines a strong, united community where all people are valued, accepted, and empowered to live healthy lives. “We believe that our new name conveys our unwavering dedication to caring for everyone we serve and the warm welcome we extend to the entire community,” states Diane E. Russo, MS, CASAC, Chief Executive Officer at PFCS. “Our new name, logo and tagline depict the safe harbor we have always offered to our clients.”

Since 1997, PFCS has provided critical services for children, families, and individuals facing issues with mental health and substance use. Regarded as an integral resource in the community, PFCS is excited to continue to provide vital services to those in need while expanding its partnerships in the rapidly changing world of behavioral health.
