Schneider replaces former CEO Matt Crocker, who resigned this summer.

She also holds a master’s of science degree in marriage and family therapy.
“It is a privilege to be part of developing services to facilitate healing and hope for both patients and families in this region,” Schneider said in a prepared statement.
