Mental Health Activism Los Angeles (original) (raw)

Now that there are several members I figure we could introduce ourselves.

1. Just a little blurb about yourself. 2. If you are willing to meet in real life. 3. What activities you would like to see us do. 4. How you would like to participate ( event planning, publicity, treasurer, transportation,secretary, historian, etc.) 5. And any other comments or suggestions.

I am really looking forward to working with all of you! So I'll break the ice first~

1,I am a 27 year old Grad Student at the University of Chicago. I'm currently living in Los Angeles with family as I take care of some health problems. I will return to Chicago in a Year. My interest in this group is to put on activities and work with the local non profits. I would love to eventually put on a concert for awareness. I feel a strong connection to music and art and would love to bring them together with my passion for advocacy.

2. I think it would be fun to have regular meetups.

3. Activities I've considered: making a zine or newsletter, participating in events the non profits put on, fund raising, group volunteering

4. I'll do whatever

5. "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed individuals can change the world. In fact, it's the only thing that ever has." Margaret Mead
