Benton County is celebrating Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to promote open conversations about mental health. Throughout May, the Benton County Health Department (BCHD) will host, co-host, sponsor and participate in various events and initiatives to raise awareness, encourage self-care, and connect people with resources.
This recognition coincides with the expansion of hours coming this June at the new Benton County Crisis Center in downtown Corvallis. Starting June 1, Benton County Crisis Center will be open from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Anyone can drop in and ask for services to get connected to the mental health support they need. No appointment is required.
