Did you know that 1 in 5 Americans experience a mental health illness in a given year? Despite its prevalence, individuals with a mental health diagnosis are still fighting to eliminate the stigma around mental health and getting treatment. Ableist language has become common vernacular with words tossed around like “crazy” and “insane.” I am joined today by Cory Bates-Rogers, Roger Isbell, and Tom Masseau to discuss this mental health crisis.
Note: There is a trigger warning for this episode for triggering language and discussion of restraint and seclusion.
Guests:
- Cory Bates-Rogers, PAIMI Council Chair
- Roger Isbell, PAIMI Council Member, Self-Advocate
- Tom Masseau, Executive Director at Disability Rights Arkansas
