Elders and Youth Conference

[image title=”DSC06146″ size=”large” id=”523″ align=”left” linkto=”http://documents.morningsidehospital.com/2010/10/DSC06146.jpg” ]Two great days at the Elders and Youth Conference. We had a booth (thanks to the Alaska Mental Health Trust Authority) and did a presentation yesterday afternoon. Forty (40) elders and youth were in the audience. We focused the presentation on telling the stories of some of the people who were sent to Morningside. A number of adults had heard of Morningside, and some had family members who were sent there. The best part was telling the story to young people, none of whom had heard of Morningside Hospital, but they all understood the tragedy of being sent so far from home.
