I'm just in awe of the CBD and based on other things I've heard about the community-supposedly they just hired a therapist for you that will charge a sliding scale and the community will cover his salary so that everyone can get therapy! What's the secret? I don't want to move there for practical reasons but just wondering if other communities can copy the model.

It is a combination of strong Rabbinic leadership: Rabbi Fuerst of the Agudah and all of the Rabbonim of the Chicago Center lead by the Rebbe, Rabbi Eichenstein together with his sons and Rabbi T. Bider as well as baalei batim who step forward to do what is needed.
And, that is not to exclude other Rabbinic leaders like those in the special Bais Din, but they do not have as broad city-wide impact.

You forgot to mention the kehilla fund which I think every Jewish community should have.

If we weren't so dead set on living in Israel dh and I agree it is likely the only place we would move to.

The Kehillah Fund is wonderful (provides funding for local elementary schools), but it doesn't really have a bearing on OP's statement/question.
