it is nice to see that there are organizations and bodies out there that are working towards the betterment of society in general and helping people to learn to live in a better way… it may just give the one lifeline required by a person in dire situations…
As someone who works in the mental health field with adolescents I really like this idea. I think that the stronger the government promotes and pushes a healthier overall lifestyle the greater the likelihood that the citizens will follow that ideal. When there is no support and no resources people flounder and do not know which way to turn. This allows families to see that mental health treatment is a priority for keeping the population healthy and well and they will discover better and new ways to take care of themselves and of others.
