Joe Mahoney, LSW

Executive Director

Joe Mahoney joined the Gaiser Center as executive director in May 2021, focusing on building partnerships in the Butler Community and creating new programs to address behavioral health needs, including addiction treatment.

A licensed social worker with more than 15 years of experience in behavioral health services, Joe earned bachelor's degrees in psychology and English from Duquesne University and a master's in social work with mental health certification from the University of Pittsburgh.

He joined the Gaiser Center from Intermediate Unit 1, an educational service agency serving school districts and communities of Washington, Greene, and Fayette counties. Working his way from a school-based social work position to director of Mental/Behavioral Health and Social Work Services for Intermediate Unit 1, Joe had direct oversight of eight outpatient clinics in Greene County, a Partial Hospitalization Program, 12 school-based mental health programs, and more than 60 school-based, master-level social workers.

Joe looks forward to finding opportunities to take the Gaiser Center's mission of recovery beyond Butler County's borders.

Joe has been with the Gaiser Center since 2021.
