SAFETY & SENSITIVITY


 association and its managers have two sometimes competing interests:


protect the residents from harm and be sensitive and cooperative to the needs of a resident suffering from a mental health issue. A board may face the daunting prospect of attempting to do both at once. A board of directors should undoubtedly seek the advice of an experienced community association attorney to help wade through these issues. In any case, the board should ensure that it is sensitive to the individuals involved. Board discussions of these matters should be done in executive session to maintain privacy. Most importantly, everyone involved should try to remember that neighbors that are suffering from mental health issues should be treated with dignity and compassion.
