“There ought to be no wrong door and no wrong place to talk about mental health and what’s going on in your life. If we can create that kind of environment, I am convinced we can get a whole lot of people who will look to the political system and say: We are not doing this right and we are not going to take it anymore. We are going to demand that you fix the things that are broken and that are keeping people from getting the help they need to have a good life.” – Bill Smith
