The New York State Office of Mental Health (OMH), in partnership with the North Country and Tug Hill Directors of Community Services, is hosting in-person Community Engagement Sessions to hear from you! The 2023 Community Engagement Sessions took OMH across New York. Now, we are returning to share what we did with your feedback and hear more about your needs and your ideas. This satellite session will take place in Saranac Lake, while additional sessions will be held in counties across North Country and Tug Hill. The sessions will take place on May 7th and May 8th.
The sessions are open to all community members! We especially want to hear from people who receive or have received mental health services, and people who have wanted to get services but haven’t. Youth and families are encouraged to attend, and there will be breakout groups specifically for youth. If you are a peer or other mental health provider, advocate, or anyone else who works with groups or people who may be interested, please share this information with them!
