4. Share your story
If you or someone you love has been impacted by the work of The Baker Center, or even just a mental health condition in general, sharing your story can be an incredibly healing and helpful process. Your voice can reach hundreds of other families struggling with the same issues you are. By sharing your story, you can make a connection with others and let them know things aren’t hopeless. You can help support and guide those in need. If you’re interested in sharing your story with our team, send us an email!
