Compassion
driving force for nonprofit

By MATT CHANDLER | Buffalo Law Journal


Executive Director Kenneth Houseknecht says the nonprofit offers numerous services to Western New Yorkers with mental illness, including pro bono legal assistance.

 

Spend a few minutes in a room with Kenneth Houseknecht and you come to understand how passionate he is about his work. Talk with his co-workers and you see that passion for helping others is a prerequisite for working at the Mental Health Association of Erie County.

Houseknecht signed on last year as executive director of the nonprofit, which is the only organization in Western New York to offer pro bono legal assistance to the mentally ill.
