ASP Cares
We believe that mental health extends beyond the walls of our clinic. Through ASP Cares, we are dedicated to making a meaningful impact in our communities by promoting mental health awareness, supporting underserved populations, and engaging in initiatives that foster well-being for all.
Connecting with our Community
We believe that fostering strong, healthy communities starts with engagement and action. ASP Cares is our way of giving back—whether through hands-on support, educational outreach, or partnerships with local organizations. By working together, we aim to break barriers to mental health care and ensure that individuals in our communities receive the resources and assistance they need
Community Support
At ASP, we recognize the power of compassion and direct action. Our patient care team recently participated in a local outreach project to provide essential goods and food to those in need. We also extended support to local fishermen in the Philippines by donating much-needed supplies, ensuring they had the resources to continue their livelihood.
Disaster Relief
When Hurricane Helene devastated western North Carolina, our team stepped up. Employees contributed both monetary and material donations to aid affected communities. One of our dedicated providers, Charlotte Sime, went above and beyond by personally delivering donated goods over several weekends, working in partnership with the Red Cross and the Harnett County Sheriff’s Department.
Mental Health Awareness
Breaking the stigma surrounding mental health is at the heart of what we do. ASP actively participates in corporate and community wellness events, educating the public about the importance of mental health care. By fostering open conversations, we empower individuals to seek support and prioritize their well-being.
Helping Kids Thrive
We believe in creating brighter futures for children. As a proud partner of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Triangle, we take part in their annual Back to School Picnic, helping kids kick off the school year with fun activities, games, and valuable resources for families. Our Medical Director, Dr. Mina Boazak, has also shared his expertise on their ADHD in children panel discussion, equipping parents and mentors with the knowledge to support young minds.
