The scrutiny that Dr. Ford has received is a perfect example as to why victims, men & women alike, do not come forward. #KavanaughHearings

Heart wrenching

This is a picture of little girls who were protesting with their mothers in DC outside the hearing. They witnessed women resisters, survivors being detained while a sexual predator awaits his confirmation to supreme court.

Sen. Harris to Dr. Ford: "I want to thank you for your courage and I want to tell you, I believe you. I believe you. And I believe many Americans across this country believe you." https://t.co/bD9aIFVrtU #KavanaughHearings

@AKimCampbell Since when does one's attire determine their credibility and level of respect they deserve? I have worn sleeveless dresses to presentations, lectures, work positions & never once have been criticized. What gives any of us the right to do so?

"I want to hear more" = the key to comfort and safety for clients. Ask to hear their stories & LISTEN it may be lifechanging. #IAYMH2017

[Emma Castanier @emma_castanier]

Lets start recognizing early signs of imbalance so we are less reactive. The future of mental health care is preventative.

@ IAYMH panel, how can we avoid driving ourselves/others around us to not drive themselves to be "sick enough" to recieve care? #IAYMH2017

[Emma Castanier @emma_castanier]

Youth care means allowing voices/needs of YOUTH to resound. Step aside & let youth into the spotlight. Empower us by listening.

In 2030 how will mental health resource delivery be more preventative instead of reactive during crises?

[Emma Castanier @emma_castanier]

Diversity is key: how will we as a global community step up in diversifying communities that develop mental health resources?

[Emma Castanier @emma_castanier]

Neoliberal ideals are not sustainable. Lets truly future proof the future for youth, as a partnership & not a business.
