On Friday, January 10, 2025, our Executive Director, Pennie Beauchamp, was interviewed by Anna de Haro of iHeartMedia (KHKS/KDMX/KDGE/KEGL/KZPS/KFXR) about self-care and the current state of mental healthcare. Listen as they discuss our current programs, including Peer Support Groups, our WHO Program for schools, Mothers and Babies, and our Mental Health Screenings, and why they are so necessary right now. Suicide prevention is discussed, along with the 988lifeline.org which is a free and confidential resource for those who are struggling.
The 49th Annual Adolescent Symposium is discussed along with the 50 workshops that will be presented for anyone who works with adolescents. They discuss Mental Health First Aid training and identifying a crisis moment in order to start working through it. So much of the mission at Mental Health America of Greater Dallas is about removing the stigma around mental illness.
