CareSource, a nonprofit managed care organization, announced its 2026 workplace giving campaign focused on addressing the growing mental health crisis by directing resources to three nonprofit partners delivering behavioral health services. The campaign supports Integrated Services for Behavioral Health (ISBH) in Ohio, Children’s Cabinet in Nevada, and Advocates in Massachusetts. According to CareSource, approximately one in five U.S. adults and one in seven youth experience mental illness each year, with millions facing barriers to care.
The selected partner organizations provide coordinated behavioral health services across different populations and regions. ISBH provides coordinated care for individuals facing mental health and substance use challenges by integrating behavioral health and primary care services to improve outcomes and reduce stigma. Children’s Cabinet delivers family and youth services including counseling, case management, parenting resources, and suicide prevention programs designed to keep children safe and families together. Advocates serves more than 50,000 individuals and families annually through mental health care, addiction recovery, crisis intervention, peer support, specialized respite services, and care management programs.
CareSource CEO Erhardt Preitauer stated that the campaign reflects the compassion employees bring to their work and that “when individuals come together to support organizations that they believe in, the collective impact can be extraordinary.” The 2026 campaign empowers CareSource employees to champion organizations addressing behavioral health gaps in care access. Last year’s three-state campaign raised more than $255,000 for charitable organizations supporting early literacy, family stability, and inclusive opportunities for children with disabilities. CareSource is a nonprofit managed care organization with over two million members and administers one of the largest Medicaid managed care plans in the United States.
