Service Access and Management, Inc. (SAM) Helping people improve their lives, every day. SAM isn't some huge conglomerate that does a bit of Case Management or Supports Coordination on the side.

Human Services are what we do and we do them well. SAM began as a tiny 15-person team of individuals dedicated to improving human services in Pennsylvania. Now, 20 years later, that team has grown to nearly 600 individuals serving more than 14,000 Pennsylvania residents. We have thousands of satisfied consumers whose lives are enriched thanks to the hard work of our staff. We are proud of our employees. Their dedication to the people they help each day are the main reason that SAM succeeds. It is easy to be proud of our programs. It is another case entirely to justify that pride with outside accreditation. Our case management and crisis intervention services are reviewed and accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF). SAM goes far beyond the annual state licensing standards and conforms to rigorous international standards of best practices for our programming. SAM has been expanding its service area since 1997 when we moved beyond the boundaries of Berks County in south central Pennsylvania to neighboring Schuylkill County. Since then, we provide services across the state of Pennsylvania and New Jersey and to more than 10,000 consumers.

✨ A little reminder as we begin a new week…

You don’t have to have it all together, all the time. It’s okay to make mistakes, slow down, take a break, or ask for help.

Remember, progress is more important than perfection, and taking care of yourself is just as important as taking care of everything else. πŸ’•

Give yourself a little grace this week. You’re doing better than you think! 🌸
