Washtenaw United: Personal tragedy inspires "Stop the Stigma" campaign when it comes to mental illness
May is mental health awareness month. Unfortunately, there is stigma still attached to mental health issues. There is inspiration to be had when progress is made, However, much of it comes from the sad and true stories of those who have suffered most. On "Washtenaw United" this week, WEMU’s David Fair discusses mental health, addiction and the loss of a son with Collyer Smith. Collyer is a member of the Ann Arbor Rotary Club and serves as the Rotary District’s chair of its mental health initiatives, including the “Stop the Stigma” campaign.
