It’s OCD Awareness Week!

October 7th – 13th

OCD Awareness Week is an international community effort to raise awareness and understanding about OCD and related disorders. OCD affects up to 4 million people in the United States alone. The goal of the week is to help more people to get timely access to appropriate and effective treatment.

Locally, Rogers Behavioral Health in Walnut Creek is hosting a free community event on Saturday, October 13th from 9:30am-1:30pm. The event will include a series of brief educational talks and discussions for adults with OCD and their loved ones, as well as for families with children or teens with OCD. Interested in attending the Rogers Behavioral Health event?
