An Evening of Hope and Discovery
Our fourth annual “Evening of Hope and Discovery” event took place in Metro Boston on October 26, 2017. The evening raised money to support Families for Depression Awareness’ programs for teens and families. Our keynote speaker was Natalie Litton, the Mental Health Parity Project and Research Coordinator at Health Care For All. Ms. Litton recently co-authored a report on barriers to mental health treatment, care and recovery and the search for solutions.
