Join the Board: A Rewarding Way to Serve Your Community
Become a member of the Mental Health & Recovery Board
When you serve on the Mental Health & Recovery Board, you know you are helping people in some very basic ways: to work toward living healthy, productive lives and to make communities safe by providing 24-hour crisis services. Our Board members make important decisions that affect services for 2,500 troubled or abused children and teens and more than 4,500 adults in our community every year.
Members volunteer several hours each month. There are some board seats which require a person have certain skills or experiences, such as a physician or a family member of a person with mental illness.
Applicants must be 18 or older and must live in Portage County. Terms are four years.
E-mail us by clicking here if you are interested in learning more about Board membership. Type your name, address, city, state, zip, telephone and e-mail, a description of your occupation or if you are interested in advocating for mental health or substance abuse treatment services. We will be in contact with you.
