Carilion Mental Health Leader Appointed to Local Human Rights Committee 

Carilion Mental Health Senior Director Lisa Dishner was recently appointed to the Roanoke-Catawba Local Human Rights Committee (LHRC) to participate in state regulation decision making and advocate for mental health services. Such work ensures that local mental health patients receive care that is therapeutic, maintains their dignity and respect, and educates our community to reduce stigma. Lisa’s participation also opens opportunities for additional Carilion employee training in mental health support. LHRC is part of the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Development Services. Join us in congratulating Lisa on this important achievement!
