She asked Murray to use her years of experience working with children, primarily families who have experienced intergenerational trauma, to build a youth and family services program that is a way to provide one-on-one support. He said he was hired by MHACF. -She once provided counseling and medication management to uninsured youth and their families. It was released on January 8th.
“I create a model for empowering children, educating them about their individual mental health, the symptoms they had, how that impacts their behavior, and then We began to empower our children by incorporating strategies into their lives that they can use to cope, helping them make different choices and leading them to greater success in life. You can do it,” Perrin said.

Maintaining your mental health is just as important as having a physical exam and having your doctor listen to your heartbeat to keep your heart and, by extension, other areas of your life functioning optimally, says Perrin. I advise you that. Health is wealth and mental health is health, wise?
She also understands that some of us may not want to delve into our traumas and try to heal them, but she reassures them that knowledge is power. .
“There's always hope when you know what's happening to you,” Perrin said. “Years ago, if someone in your family was struggling with mental health – someone who was an outcast, an outsider, someone no one talked about at family gatherings, they would be isolated. Communities and Communities. We want to ensure the knowledge that there is much hope in mental health, that there is much help, and that there is no reason why people struggling with a mental health diagnosis should be separated from their communities. I would like to create this.”
