MACMH Announcements

Open•Up is a literary and visual arts journal about mental health created by and for artists ages 5-21.
Open•Up offers children, youth, and young adults a forum to express their thoughts and feelings through paintings, drawings, poems, essays, posters, photographs, cartoons, and stories. The focus of Open•Up is mental health or, in other words, the way you express yourself, how you cope with everyday life, and how you get along with others. Artists ages 5 - 21 are welcome to submit artwork they have produced in the last three years.
Submission deadline is Dec. 14.

Visit the Open•Up web page for ideas about how to get started

Limited Number of Storybooks Back in Stock!
"The Gift That Is My Child" storybook is a wonderful tool for families with young children.  The storybook offers an excellent way for families to keep a journal about their child’s development, a record of the issues their family is concerned about, and a place to keep notes about questions they have. The storybook also offers a starting point for developing family-directed family outcomes.  MACMH has a limited supply so order soon.  The storybooks are free–you pay only shipping and handling! Visit www.macmh.org to download the order form.
