Stigma Must Go!

Spring offers the promise of a new day on the horizon. A distress call for many people in 50 communities served by an old facility...Eastern State Hospital. Where is the promise made to us regarding the ground breaking in early 2007? It is now March, 2007 and no mention of this from the powers that be.

A distress call is going out. We need a state of the art facility to ensure quality care for those suffering with a severe brain disorder. The families and consumers need their voices to be heard! Stigma must go! Knowing more enables and empowers us to do more!!!

Won't you join us in the fight? Let's contact our state government officials and see what has happened to the promises. Advocate for the cause!! Join us at the May Day Alert on May 3, 2007 as we come together for change!

Respectfully submitted,
Yolonda Kelsor
