St. Joseph Mercy - Chelsea to provide free mental health screenings in Manchester on May 16th

One in five adults experience mental illness each year. Just like blood pressure screenings can help you better understand your physical health, mental health screenings can help you better understand your mental health.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and on May 16th, St. Joseph Mercy - Chelsea will be offering free mental health screenings by a licensed professional at two locations in Manchester, from 8-11 am at the Manchester Wellness Center located at 710 East Main Street (behind the Manchester Middle School) and from 1-4 pm at the Manchester Community Resource Center, located at 410 City Road. As part of the screening, if needed, the licensed professional will help you develop an individualized plan of support. To schedule a free screening, call 734-680-5312.

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
