Remove The Stigma...Break The Chains Of Silence of Mental Illness In The African American Community

One of the greatest loves of my life, my niece who I raised as my daughter, had a psychotic break June 2011. She stabbed me and killed herself. We never saw this coming!!! I started a national non-profit, Mental Health In The African American Community, Inc. We are a 501c3 agency. We need funds to execute our grassroots mental health programs. Please release federal funds so we can save lives and enhance lives in the African American Community. America is experiencing a major mental illness epidemic in the African American Community. We must remove the stigma and break the chains of silence of mental illness so people can receive the professional help that they need.

Help us with this fight!!! Please post this petition on your Facebook and other social media sites. Forward this email to your contacts. Help us achieve our monthly goal, which is to get 1,000 signatures a month. We would like to deliver 5,000 signatures to President Obama in April 2015. I encourage you to include comments because I read all of them. Also, your comments will be delivered to President Obama. Carolyn McKenzie
