Heads up, Humboldt:
While the county's masking mandate has been lifted, Public Health is still strongly recommending masking indoors in public, social distancing and "avoiding crowds and poorly ventilated spaces."
COVID-19 is still with us, so be sure to check the protocols at event venues.
NAMI-Humboldt (National Alliance on Mental Illness) sponsors this presentation by Kelli Schwartz, the Humboldt County Public Guardian, and Melody Beltz, Patients Rights Advocate. The Public Guardian will explain how her office serves as representative payee for clients with impairments including mental health issues. She will also talk about the purpose of the two types of conservatorships, one of which requires a court order.
Melody Beltz, Patient Rights Advocate will address her office’s role in assuring that patients in the Mental Health system have their interests represented. There will be an opportunity for questions following the presentations.
