About this event


One in five U.S. adults experience mental illness each year (NAMBI). Mental illness is a condition that affects a person's thinking, feeling, behavior or mood and impacts day-to-day living. The LWVJoCo has been working since the 1990s to support comprehensive mental health services in JoCo. This panel discussion, led by Tim DeWeese, Director of the JoCo Mental Health Center, will discuss mental health services now available to residents. 


Guest Speaker:
Tim DeWeese, 
the Director of the JoCo Mental Health Center.
