On September 9, 1993, Jaynie Longnecker-Harper started Benchmark with one client, one staff member, and one couch.
Today, we celebrate our 22nd Anniversary!
Benchmark has become the longest running young adult transitional program of its kind, averaging approximately 45 - 50 new clients annually, with over 45 full time and part time staff members, as well multiple generations of the family business team, all dedicated to transforming the lives of young adults and their families through Courage, Conscience and Character.

1) Show Integrity in all that we do
2) Demonstrate ourselves as highly competent and professional
3) Embrace growth and change
4) Be positive and optimistic
4) Accountable for quality care and service

"We thank our friends, families and colleagues for your ongoing support and partnerships with us and will strive to meet and uphold our values and dedication to the treatment of our clients, throughout this year and in the years to come!"
