The following comment was received from Candida Abrahamson and I thought I would feature it here so that it did not get missed.
Many thanks to Candida for reminding us….
Just reminding everyone that May is Mental Health Awareness Month, with two main areas of focus:
1. “Do More for 1 in 4″: A call to help the one in four people with a diagnosable mental illness; and
2. “Healing Trauma’s Invisible Wounds,” looking at the impact of traumatic events on both individuals and communities at large.
Please see Mental Health America for details and downloadable tool kits. Best, Candida
[Editor's Comment: Additional resources available for download are available from the Mental Health America site. I would very much like to add my encouragement to those of Candida's for members to pop across and check it out and to download those resources for themselves.]
