Awareness Day 2011

Awareness Day 2011

On May 3, 2011 in Washington DC an amazing and wonderful event is taking place as a tribute to honor young people everywhere who have experienced trauma in their young lives but sustained it all with their deep resilience.

* True stories will be recounted onstage.

* Featured artwork from children who were directly affected by 9/11 will be exhibited.

* Professional entertainers (including Arcadian Broad) will perform during the Evening Program.

Actress Jamie Lee Curtis is the Honorary Chair for this wonderful Awareness Day event.

CBS News Chief National Correspondent Byron Pitts is the event’s Emcee for the evening.

This is a wonderful time to see all this and more, to see what (U.S. Secretary Kathleen Sebelius), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is doing for this cause.

Through it’s ‘Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’, the National Children’s Mental Health Awareness Day 2011 event will give us all a chance to look at the strength exhibited in this presentation of our amazing young people.
