JAIL IS THE LAST THING THAT MENTAL PATIENTS NEED, AND TOO OFTEN, IT IS THE VERY LAST THING THEY EXPERIENCE. Please join our effort to decriminalize mental illness. No one deserves to be punished for having a disability. Repeal capital punishment; stop excessive sentencing and wrongful convictions. Respect human and civil rights. Equal justice!

by Mary Neal

In a world with so much to be done, I thought there must be something for me to do. ~ Dorothea L. Dix, human rights advocate of the 1800's, responsible for the first generation of mental hospitals in America.

Just click the cover to see the over 400 photos. Select "slideshow," and you'll miss some. I discovered some are censored and are set not to show on slideshow view.

Interesting: I published AIMI's album at 7:30 a.m., and have received no Care2 emails after that time. It is now 12.5 hours later (nearly 8 p.m.). Must be ANOTHER email problem.
