Location: Multnomah County Boardroom, 501 SE Hawthorne Blvd, Portland
Due to the tremendous interest in the December Community Listening Session on Mental Health, Commissioner Sharon Meieran is hosting a second opportunity to provide feedback, along with a movie screening. The information gathered will inform the deep analysis of our local mental health system by Multnomah County and Human Services Research Institute.
Not Broken is a one-hour documentary by Arizona Public Media about youth who have lived experience of mental illness. This event offers the opportunity to watch Not Broken as a community and share your thoughts about a better mental health system. At the screening on February 6, the movie will begin at 6:00 p.m., and the Listening Session will begin at 7:00 p.m.
Seating is limited, so anyone who wants to attend should RSVP here by Thursday, February 1, to reserve a seat.
For those who wish to provide feedback about the mental health care system in Multnomah County but cannot attend the listening session, they can do so via this feedback form, which will remain open until February 28.
Light snacks will be provided at the listening session, and childcare and translation services are available by request. Anyone who RSVPs should indicate if childcare, translation services, or any other accommodations are needed so that we may plan accordingly.
Any questions can be directed to the office of Commissioner Meieran at district1@multco.us.
