Chief Development & Public Relations Officer

Beth Vachon joined Lakes Region Mental Health Center in 2022. Prior to LRMHC, Beth worked in public education for over 20 years in grants program management.

Beth is a passionate advocate for individuals most at-risk, dedicated to advancing equity and reducing disparities in access to care.

Beth holds a dual master’s degree in special education and data and assessment, and undergraduate degrees in fine arts and organizational management, and is nearing completion of a CAGS in Psychology/Clinical Mental Health at Plymouth State University. She is a recent graduate of the University of New Hampshire Institute on Disabilities Leadership Series and is a Certified Diversity and Inclusion Professional.

In her free time, Beth enjoys spending time with her family, including her three children, and four grandchildren- who keep her very busy travelling as they live in other parts of the country. You can usually find her with a tool of some kind in her hand, doing maintenance or improvement on her 120+ year old home in Laconia.
