My topic- Mental Health and Addiction: Highlighting Injustices to our Youth
As a community advocate and a mother who tried to get help for her son, Charles, and ultimately lost him to suicide, Anne Moss illustrates the many gaps in a complex and broken system of care. She is fighting to give a voice to those suffering from mental illness and addiction–a vulnerable and underserved population. The injustices of which are widespread, cruel and unrelenting.
