Pro-Bone-O Veterinary Care gave the NEST program a huge donation for our outreach program last week and they will be offering another Vet Clinic again this Sunday, May 9th.

"The Salem Budget Committee Wednesday evening unanimously voted to set aside $135,000 for a mobile response unit that would send a crisis worker and EMT to calls of people in mental health crisis instead of police." https://t.co/ymIqKggMJY
