The CEO of the National Alliance on Mental Illness Maine (NAMI Maine) has resigned amid criticism over the way she treated her staff, The Associated Press reported Feb. 13. Jenna Mehnert's resignation was announced Feb. 12, about two months after more than 50 former employees, board members, current and past volunteers and community members complained in a letter to the board. The announcement didn't mention the reasons for Mehnert's departure, but the board president thanked her for her service, the Bangor Daily News reported. Mehnert had led the organization since 2013. Amy Hodgdon, president of the NAMI Maine board of directors, said in the release there will be "an extensive search to ensure the best possible pool of applicants to lead this group forward." The board voted to place Mehnert on administrative leave in late November. The letter‐writers took the board to task for failing to adequately respond to Mehnert's alleged "abusive" management style and high turnover. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
