PBS Will Present "Minds on the Edge: Facing Mental Illness"

From Kristalyn Salters-Pedneault, PhD, About.com Guide   September 22, 2009

In October, PBS will be presenting"Minds on the Edge: Facing Mental Illness." The program promises to be an attempt to engage citizens, policy makers, and mental health professionals in an honest and open conversation about the current U.S. mental health system.

The website for the program has a number of very interesting features, and previews of the program are entertaining and provocative. You can also check the website to find out when your local PBS station will be airing the show. This is one program that may be worth checking out.

The broadcast was “an attempt” to address the concerns. I don’t think that “an attempt” to address the concerns in a broadcast is wise to those that have “a concern” with mental illness.
