Older Adult Behavioral Health: Expanding Support for Older Adults and Caregivers

Uncategorized

In 2025, Provident continued to strengthen its commitment to older adults and those who care for them. We launched the TeleHelp Caregiver Line, offering emotional support and guidance to caregivers who often experience isolation, stress, and burnout.

Across Counseling, Psychiatric Services, TeleHope, and TeleHelp, Provident served nearly 500 older adults, while an additional 5,000 individuals were reached through educational presentations, community outreach, and support groups designed to promote connection, resilience, and mental wellness.

Provident President and Executive Director Kevin Drollinger was also named to the St. Louis County Senior Tax Levy Steering Committee, reflecting Provident’s leadership role in shaping systems that support aging adults across the region.
