Hi there,
I have news! I recently joined the board of directors of Mental Health Advocacy Services (MHAS) here in LA.It is a wonderful non-profit devoted to helping people with mental disabilities.This is a mission close to my heart.My interest in helping people with mental illness was born originally from my father’s life’s work as a psychiatrist, and then shaped by my own life experience, knowing many people over the years who have struggled in this area. The stigma associated with mental illness shames our friends, family members, co-workers, and neighbors into silence and prevents them from seeking help. This leads to chronic cycles of perpetual struggle and instability: difficulty in relationships, homelessness, legal challenges to name just a few.
I am excited to take a step toward solution and am thrilled to be a part of the MHAS team.At Mental Health Advocacy Services, our mission is to protect and advance the legal rights of children and adults with mental disabilities in order to maximize their autonomy, promote their equality, and secure the resources they need to thrive in our community.
The month of May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Now I am getting a late start here as I just joined the board this past week….but I’m hoping to help generate some donations for this worthy cause. If you are so moved, I welcome any contribution that works for you.(As a bonus, anyone who gives $50 or more will receive a personal, stainless steel straw and pouch to bring with you to all the restaurants that no longer provide straws!)
Just click on the green DONATE button…
All the best,
Lisa
