One Year Later: MindFreedom Free Online Directory of Mental Health Alternatives Growing!
ACTION: How *You* Can Promote Self-Directed, Safe and Humane Healing Approaches in Mental Health
by Matthew Morrissey, MindFreedom International (MFI) Board Member
Today -- July 4th, 2010 -- MindFreedom’s Directory of Mental Health Alternatives celebrates its one-year anniversary:
http://www.mindfreedom.org/directory
Currently, we have providers listed in 18 states and 3 countries. Over
the next year, we would like to have providers listed for every state
in the USA, as well as including more international providers.
We need your help to meet this goal.
If you are receiving services from a provider whom you find helpful and
sympathetic to MFI's vision, go to the MFI Directory Gateway, and
download our new INFORMATION SHEETS here:
http://www.mindfreedom.org/directory
The free Info Sheets are PDF's of a flyer, invitation letter and
Statement of Principles. Bring these along with you the next time you
see your provider. Encourage her or him to sign up on the Directory.
Or maybe you have some free time and want to take a simple, direct action in your area?
Then put up some of these INFO SHEETS at your community mental health
clinic, local wellness center, or even educational institutions that
teach psychology or other approaches to emotional healing.
No matter what, please forward this e-mail message -- perhaps with a
few of your words of personal support -- to those who may be interested.
This is a unique way to introduce MFI and its vision to new people in your community.
Finally, if you are a provider of services who agrees with
MindFreedom’s vision of a just and humane mental health system, please
sign up to be listed on the Directory, which is currently free. How to
sign up for the Directory is also at the MFI Directory Gateway, here:
