I am a member of a local support group for people that has or has had any type of mental illness or just need someone to talk to. This is the first type of independent mental & physical wellness group in the state of Mississippi. We have tried to get a grant through the state of Mississippi but we were turned down. It is getting very hard to keep this program going, because we have absolutely no type of funding. We would like to get enough funds to open up a small store, where we can have group meeting, free counseling, workshops, & employment for people that might not be able to work in a regular working environment. We would like to start putting an insert into our local newspaper so that we can get more people coming to our meetings. Right now, we are meeting at our local library. If we had a place of our own. Maybe we could have more meetings so that everyone would get a chance to come. The lady who started this group had about a year ago is a fabulous woman. She started this group because of her son. Her son has been through a lot of depression, and she noticed that there was not a place for her son to be around other people that was going through the same things. If you know of a website where you can apply for grants or a website where people might donate to our organization. This organization is based in Batesville, Mississippi. If you would like to know more about our organization. Please leave your e-mail address below, and I will e-mail you.
