SUMMARY:Civic Action Conversations - Mental Health and Well-Being: Why it Matters & What You Can Do 111622
DESCRIPTION:As we emerge from one global pandemic\, America faces another critical public health issue: a pervasive mental health crisis. Twenty percent of both adults and children in America experience mental illness\, and those numbers are growing. When we consider the World Health Organization's principle that "health is not merely the absence of illness\," we know the crisis is even more serious than this statistic indicates and will require more and more equitable mental health services\, resources\, and innovative solutions. Join us on Wednesday\, November 16\, as local experts explore mental health and well-being\, how the mental health crisis impacts both individuals and communities\, and what we can do about it.\n\n \n\n Muriel Azria-Evans\, Director of Mental Health & Wellness\, Health Brigade \n Eric Clay\, Senior Community Impact Officer\, Community Foundation for a greater Richmond\n Chimere Miles\, Family and Community Engagement Liaison\, Peter Paul\n Amy Popovich\, Nurse Manager\, Richmond and Henrico Health Districts\n John Richardson-Lauve\, Mental Health Director and Lead Trauma and Resilience Educator\, ChildSavers\n Lucy Roberts\, Health & Wellbeing National Practice Specialist\, One Digital \n Mary Beth Walsh\, Director of Programs\, NAMI Virginia \n Ashley Williams\, Founder\, BareSoul Yoga and Well Collective
