Ms. DeMailo has worked at the SAVAHCS since 2009, starting her VA career in the intensive in-home mental health program before transitioning to the mental health clinic to become a psychotherapist and team lead. Ms. DeMailo followed her calling in management, starting as a supervisor in the homeless program, then becoming a program manager for the Behavioral Health Interdisciplinary Program, before landing her current position in 2023. Ms. DeMailo worked with children and families in the community prior to getting her masters.
