Board Member

Lydia Arellano joined the Buckelew Board of Directors in 2022 and is passionate about bringing dignity and respect to mental health clients and the professionals who support them.

Her late husband was a long-term Marin County Mental Health administrator, a firm and relentless advocate for the dignity and respect for all mental health clients. He was a strong believer in the Buckelew mission. Through their lengthy marriage he shared this passion with Lydia and they both understood the stress factors that weigh on mental health professionals. Lydia is inspired by the selfless dedication these professionals bring to an organization such as Buckelew.

As a Buckelew trustee, she is committed to do her part in bringing dignity and respect to mental health clients and mental health professionals alike.”
