OPINION: A letter in support of Supervisor Woodhouse from Sonya Nesch

Letter to the Editor

Without Supervisor Woodhouse, Mendocino County Mental Health would still be wallowing in their cesspool with Ortner, and pouring much of the annual $27M down a rat hole. He has courageously provided leadership and hope to move forward. I am grateful that he speaks out publicly with the truth about the CEOs role in the demise of County Mental Health as in his Mendo Voice Interview https://mendovoice.com. During the second half of his term, Supervisor Woodhouse will focus on reform of the Mental Health system among other important items.

We need multiple Psychiatric Health Facilities and for Measures AG and AH to pass. And, we must advocate powerfully to convince Camille Schraeder of Redwood Community Services that along with conventional mental health treatments we need neurofeedback and other options (see The Body Keeps the Score).
