Hip, hip, HOORAY!! Today was the official ribbon cutting day for our friends and allies in mental health at Sean's House Sussex!

When young people have a safe space to be heard by those who understand their lived experiences, outcomes change for the better. For teens and young adults navigating critical transition years, accessible mental health supports are lifesaving.

At SUN Delaware, we're here to help 24/7/365. Serving adolescents (13 yrs+) and adults through inpatient and outpatient treatment programs with leading-edge clinical expertise.

We know the power of partnership is everything - and the closer those of us on the helping side link together, the stronger our whole community will grow. Please join us in giving a massive welcome to Sean's House for bringing this essential safe haven to Sussex County!

Your mental health deserves a checkup, too.

October is National Depression and Mental Health Screening Month—a reminder to check in on your mood, sleep, energy, and how you’re managing daily life.

A mental health assessment with one of our licensed professionals can help you understand changes you’ve noticed and discuss next steps. Contact us today for your mental health checkup.

People living with mental illness deserve the same patience, compassion, and support we offer those with physical illness. Let's commit to listening without judgment, helping to reduce stigma, and recognizing that every person deserves understanding and care.

Today, our Human Resources Director and Business Development Director attended the Delaware Academy of Medicine and Public Health, Delaware Healthcare Workforce Summit: Focus on Behavioral Health and Rural Health Transformation.

​It was an incredible day filled with powerful conversations, new connections, and key insights into the future of healthcare in our state. One line stood out to us above all:
​"We cannot change what we do not take the time to understand."

​At SUN, this hits right at the heart of our mission. Located in rural Georgetown, Delaware, we are deeply committed to solving unmet mental health and substance use needs in our community. Real transformation starts with listening, learning, and showing up—and we’re proud to be part of the coalition working toward a healthier, more supported Delaware.

Help Is Here

09/17/2026

You don’t need to have all the right words to help someone who is struggling. Know the signs and notice changes in their behavior. Ask directly if they are thinking about self-harm. Listen without judgment and stay connected while encouraging them to seek support. In crisis? Call 24/7 to speak to one of our compassionate behavioral health professionals. Brighter days start here.
