This month brings to light the 

accomplishments of women on a national scale.

In the San Mateo County

mental health community

i know many women who support

my personal wellness in their work

throughout Behavioral Health and Recovery Services.

Recently my good friend Sylvia Tang

has been out sick for a week.

i hope She returns soon.

Sylvia is a vital part of us all organizing

for Mental Health Awareness Month

which is in May.

i count on Her advise and guidance.

She is helping me create some

community events to honor my peers.

There is a long list of names to honor:

Dr. Maria Lorenti-Foresti, Desirae Miller,

Chyvonne Washington, Annette Pakhchian,

Dorice James, Dr, Erica Britton, 

Dana Foley, Lanajean Vecchione, and 

Leslie K. DuBridge are often in my thoughts.

They all work to create a better community

for my peers and myself.

i hope You will honor women in 

Your life now and on a daily basis.

i am grateful for these women most of all.
