About Us
Our Story
Founded in 1996, meetings began at Delaware County Memorial Hospital in Drexel Hill. Today, DBSA Delaware County is one of the leading DBSA Chapters in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Serving the Delaware and Chester County area, we attribute our reputation to the tireless efforts of our all volunteer, peer-to-peer staff, who strive each day to lead and mentor our members over the years.
We believe that all of our members deserve the highest level of support and understanding of Mood Disorders, assisting them in recovery and stability with the guidance of their Doctor and Therapist.
Explore the rest of our site to learn more about what we have to offer, and get in touch with any questions. DBSA Delaware County Chapter is here for you.
Chapter Meetings-What are they like?
Everything online until Stay at Home is relaxed
DBSA Delaware County, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) Non-profit incorporated in the
State of Illinois
Open to all regardless of race, ethnicity, national origin, age, immigration status, orientation, gender identity or expression, religion, or disability.
We begin with a check in - a simple "how was your week" intro from each person. For new members, you tell us as much as you wish so we understand your issues better. Each week we share our progress or our setbacks, knowing you've got a group of empathetic folks listening and ready to help.
The second hour brings more open discussion, perhaps a topic, things on your mind...but also time to bring our new folks better understanding and friendly guidance.
We by no means replace your doctor/therapist, and this is not a 12-step or other form of recovery. DBSA is unique and the model is proven that patients who attend support meetings like ours stay compliant and stable longer.
We will respond to your VM and messages within 24 hours
