This year's event had a wonderful turn
out with over 800 advocates spreading the word... Recovery
is the Key: Treatment works!
 
   
 
  

Advocacy is a big part of the work
done at Transition House, Inc. Thanks to the many who work together
to support the needs of mental health consumers statewide. The
following are photos from a rally at the Capitol March 2, 2004:
  
   
 

 

The 2004 Rally was the
largest ever - estimates were that 800-900 advocates of mental health were
at the Capitol. This year's event was also significant because it
was the first year that our Governor was at the rally and spoke to the
advocates.

rally at the Capitol in March of 2003:
