May is Mental Health Awareness Month and we are so happy to welcome Chrissy Skrip to speak at our May meeting. Chrissy will talk about the various services and levels of care provided by Silver Oaks, but also what to do if you are experiencing a behavioral health emergency and that it is okay to not be okay.
