North Central Missouri Mental Health Center is committed to improving the well-being of our community, and we believe conducting a thorough needs assessment is a crucial step in continuing to provide quality care for our community’s mental health needs.
We request your assistance in this endeavor by completing a short survey for our needs assessment. We anticipate the survey will take less than 5 minutes of your time. The findings from the survey will be utilized to develop a focused plan on how to better serve our clients, communities, and staff. We will share the results with the community through our website and page.
Please complete this survey by August 31.

We are also looking for participants to attend virtual focus groups to dig a little deeper into specific needs. If you are interested in participating in one of these groups, please contact DeAnna Savage at deanna@ncmmh.org
Thank you for your time and assistance.
Sincerely,
NCMMHC Needs Assessment Committee

Congratulations Lori!

Last week at the Lake of the Ozarks, members of the Missouri Behavioral Health Council’s leadership board gathered for the 2025 Strategic Board Retreat. This energizing, collaborative session gave leadership the opportunity to reflect, strategize, and innovate for the year ahead. From enhancing initiatives to exploring new strategies, the focus was clear: to advance behavioral health across Missouri. We are excited about the upcoming fiscal year and remain dedicated to working together to build a healthier Missouri!

What if I have PTSD, but do not get treatment?
Sometimes people with PTSD assume their PTSD symptoms will go away with enough time. This might be the case for some people, but not for everyone.

Most people who are going to get better without treatment get better in the first year. So, if you have had your symptoms for more than a year, they are likely to be long-lasting without treatment.

How is PTSD treated?
There is no single treatment that will work for every person with PTSD. But in general, people who receive an evidence-based treatment (a treatment proven to work in multiple research studies) for PTSD show a noticeable improvement in their symptoms, and many no longer have PTSD.

In this decision aid, you can learn about evidence-based PTSD treatments, including different types of psychotherapy (also called talk therapy or counseling) and medication.
