• May Mental Health Awareness Month
    Mental Health Awareness Month was started by MHA Mental Health America which is the oldest organization for Mental Health. Started in 1928 by a consumer finding that it was difficult and no laws to help the Mentally ILL. Join us to say that everyone is depressed once in a while and that the FMLA of 12 weeks NON-Paid leave is not reasonable when Illness causes money. Everyone with ill children or family members receive no pay for these 12 weeks

  • Increase Social Security benefits
    We who have worked hard all our lives, are given a very small percentage of our SSI upon retirement. It's not enough for us to live off on a monthly basis, especially when most of us have medical bills.
