Mental Health anyone?
Feb 8 2008, 11:29 PM EST
Hello,

I chair the board of Great Strides, a community mental health agency providing equine facilitated psychotherapy, therapeutic riding and equine facilitated learning. Anyone else doing mental health work, here?

We have an office in Second Life, as part of the Nonprofit Commons, and will soon run our second inworld event - a ride-a-thon. Contact me for more info, or check out our website at: www.GreatStrides.org.

Thanks,

Veri/Brad

Several mental health groups in SL have information pages created here in SLHealthy.
I will get an information page up for you shortly.

I own Wellness Island which is focused on mental health issues...you are welcome to join our Mental Health Network group or come by for a visit anytime. We also publish Wellness magazine. If I can help spread the word about your event, I would be glad to.

Avalon,

That's tremendous! We're setting up an office on the Nonprofit Commons - Aloft Island (their second). I'd love to come by and learn more about what's happening on Wellness Island, too. I'll have to look, as I may have joined Mental Health Network, and in any case I'd love to get a copy of Welness magazine. Is it published inworld or in RL? How do I subscribe?

Looking forward to collaborating with you, in future,

Brad/Veri Oddfellow

Brad, WELLNESS magazine is available on Wellness Island and online at www.slwellness.com in .pdf format. I can send you a copy in-world if you like. Great to have you here! Do you find this valuable?
