Florida Peer Network, Inc.

Images From the Mind

The Peer Network is proud to announce our new art gallery and videos dedicated to the art of people with mental illnesses, as a part of our campaign to fight stigma and discrimination. All of this has been made possible by a grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, Center for Mental Health Services as part of the National Campaign for Mental Health Recovery.

The three videos we have produced address attitudes towards mental illnesses among young adults, the contribution that people with mental illness bring to the community, and the importance of the support of friends and family for people living with psychiatric disorders. We hope you like these new additions to our website and hope to hear from you about it. Please contact us at info@floridapeernetwork.org.
