Public Access TV Show Looks at Mental Health Consumer Movement

Jay Mahler and Sally Zinman, two long-time activists in the mental health consumer movement, were interviewed in June 2008 on the show “Mental Health Matters,” which airs on public access TV in Alameda County, California. The interview is available here.

“Mental Health Matters” focuses on mental health issues, including specific diagnoses, stigma and discrimination, self-help, and peer support. It is hosted by the Rev. Barbara Meyers, produced by Mission Peak Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Fremont in Alameda County, California, and recorded at the Comcast studio in Fremont. All the episodes are available online here.
