Julio's Run: May 4-9, 2015

Julio Salazar is running across Minnesota in May 2015 to raise awareness about Mental Health. We were inspired by his story, and wanted to help bring awareness around Glencoe, MN, so we are having a local 5K Run/Walk the same week as his big run.

Stop the Silence

I've lived with mental illness all of my life, and have seen the negative consequences of misinformation from those who do not understand it. When I saw the following commercial on TV, I was impressed. It's exactly what we need to start to "break the stigma".
