On August 3rd, Supervisor Andrew Do met with a group of Orange County behavioral health service providers to discuss services and outreach in the County. Supervisor Do highlighted the need for outreach to ethnic communities to address the disparities in care.
“It’s important that we make sure all of our residents have access to services,” said Supervisor Do. “We need to be proactive in engaging our diverse communities throughout the County.”
As a member of both the Mental Health Board and the CalOptima Board, Supervisor Do has made it a priority to increase the quality and availability of mental health care for residents.
