Public Health and Behavioral Health set "Open Doors, Open Possibilities" HHS open house Oct. 28
Summary
Amador County Public Health and Behavioral Health announced an Oct. 28 open house at the Health & Human Services building to connect residents to public health, behavioral health, social services and veterans services.
Amador County Public Health and Behavioral Health staff announced an open house for the county’s Health and Human Services building scheduled for Oct. 28, with the theme “Open Doors, Open Possibilities.” Presenters said the event will include allied HHS partners and provide an opportunity for residents to meet staff and learn how to access services for physical and mental health, housing stability and family support.
Public Health staff (identified as Stacy in the meeting record) and a behavioral health program coordinator (Melissa) told the board they are coordinating across public health, behavioral health, social services and veteran services to display services, offer childcare and provide food; Melissa described the event’s theme as reflecting “accessibility, inclusion, and innovation.” The announcement also noted childcare availability and that the county will serve food at the event.
Why it matters: County staff said the open house is intended to increase public awareness of available programs and reduce duplication of outreach by combining resources and partner staff under one event.
Next steps: Staff asked the board to help spread the word; the county will post flyers and provide event logistics to community partners.
