Reason for Recommendation: Adoption of this Proclamation encourages all residents to better understand and appreciate the powerful role the brain and emotions play in our lives; and that persons with mental disabilities, as well as those who suffer acute emotional distress deserve our understanding, respect, compassion and support.
