The discussion will focus on why individuals experience anxiety, depression, vicarious trauma and offer information about resources in the community. So many people are hurting and feeling helpless – the Erie County Anti-Stigma Coalition is offering a back-to-basics discussion about why it’s ok to seek help.
The discussion will be moderated by Frank Cammarata, Executive Director at Erie County Office for Disabled and member of the Anti-Stigma Coalition’s Outreach Committee.
