    This is a cause that everyone needs to be made aware of. The stigma around mental illness prevents people from getting help. Lets start somewhere with reducing the stigma and helping a cause that effects so many lives!

    To anyone - politician or not - who may be hesitant to address the issue of mental health awareness: Don't be afraid to say the wrong things. What we need right now is to get the conversation started. And as with any conversation, somebody needs to be the first to speak. Thank you.

    Extremely IMPORTANT to have ANY Mental Health professionals to have an advanced American Sign Language (ASL) abilities in order to able to work very well with Deaf/HH or Disabled Patients with any levels. Thanks!

    Need to address the need for Mental Health Professionals who use Sign Language to work with the Deaf Community's need for direct services not via an interpreter!

    Much mental disorder is government sponsored. Returning Combat Veterans with brain injuries are being treated and enrolled in rehabilitation programs. This shows that the machine is up and running. This rehabilitation effort is rather closed currently ... BUT... political and governmental minds ARE already attuned to Mental Illness Disorders and competent strategies of treatment. The money and minds are aware, very aware.
