Watch out! Saturday Sanity is actually on Saturday this week!
- The Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance contest, Facing Us, is still going strong - and will until November 1, 2007 - so get your submissions in!
- House Backs Plan to Reduce Vet Suicides. Now, if we could only get the military to stop sending bills for enlistment sign-on bonuses to those vets who’ve been discharged with mental health conditions and told they had them before they enlisted. Maybe the House needs to get involved in that, too. One step at a time, one step at a time…
- From the DBSA Web site: “This important legislation (S.1375, the MOM’s Act — The Mom’s Opportunity to Access Help, Education, Research and Support for Postpartum Depression) legislation must now be passed in the Health,Education, Labor and Pension Committee (HELP) — before it can go to the full Senate for a vote.” So…TAKE ACTION!
- Move ADHD Parenting Classes To The Soccer Field To Get Dads Involved. Go Team COACHESs!
- Man who strangled mother will spend his life in mental health center. Mental illness and criminal justice always get my attention - especially when they come packaged together. I want to touch more on this article later.
And there you have it, folks. Remember, if you have any Saturday Sanity-worthy scoops, send ‘em my way.
