SEVENTY-FIVE YEARS/THOUSANDS OF LETTERS by Dede Ranahan

Hi Everybody!

I’m taking a break from posting this week 1) to celebrate my 75th birthday 2) to make sure I get my letters to the 2020 presidential candidates in the mail and email asking them to display their serious mental illness (SMI) policies on their campaign websites. We have to make SMI part of the 2020 presidential discourse if we want it to compete with all the other issues coming to the fore.

The lack of SMI care in the United States is a disaster that’s getting worse by the day. I hope you’ll be writing letters/emails, too. Let’s send thousands of letters and put SMI front and center on the national stage.

Thanks!
