A series of four half-hour shows that feature people across the age-span who speak their true life stories about the journey of mental illness: their challenges, turning points and the recovery which is achievable with the help of family, friends and collaborative partnerships of mental health professionals.

		Women in Recovery Three women share their personal recovery stories and how they reclaimed their lives and moved forward in their roles as mother, wife, business owner, worker, and friend. (approx. 30 min.)
		Young Adults and the College Years Stress & Mental Health Learn about the college years of three young adults whose lives were unexpectedly interrupted by mental illness. (approx. 30 min.)
		Men and Depression Three men speak candidly about job loss, serious injury, and addiction that led to depression and what they did to regain their lives. (approx. 30 min.)
		Recognizing your child’s mental health needs It’s never too early to intervene! Parents share their stories about learning to understand their child's mental health concerns, how they advocated for the best services, and what they want other parents to know. (approx. 30 min.)
