WE STAND!
The preventive actions I call for are not more of the same
This more than they will let us have
We deserve mental health prevention across the lifespan
Without prevention, mental disability results
Mental disability continues across the lifespan

Text of abstract (Exactly 150 words): βMental health prevention is preventing itself from truly acting in the public good. Research is searching, but are they ever finding? Next directions? What direction? The people call without calling for mental health prevention to be more than a program with small visions of what mental health prevention means. Small vision. Small results. We must embrace a different way arising from reckoning with the past. Robust mental health preventive efforts have never existed. No efforts were there before I started whimpering in emotional pain. No support. My whimper transformed into a guttural scream in agony. I was seen. We were seen. Treatment became our norm. A different way comes from facing the pain inflicted. A different way comes from a future where prevention becomes infrastructure. A different way from a different credential, Mental Health Preventive Care Practitioners (MHPCP). Ready for a different way? Ready or not, this is happening. Now.β
Iβm ready.
I brought together something I am deeply proud of, driving resolve for a different way to approach mental health βprevention.β
The status quo must end.
This abstract opens my MHPCP Manifesto.

Tens of millions of people have died from Covid.
Every country should have responded with record investments in public health infrastructure.
Instead the US government is putting us all at greater risk of more catastrophes by firing hundreds of top scientists whose job is to prevent outbreaks.

A vibrant digital painting shows a glowing abstract vessel woven of three braided cords β firelight, waterlight, and pure light. The vessel carries the banner of MHPCA as it surges forward. Behind it, a barren landscape of rubble and decay transforms into lush green fields and thriving growth, symbolizing prevention becoming infrastructure. The cords radiate with embedded, clearly legible phrases: Parity Wasnβt Enough, Prevention as Infrastructure, MHPCP: The Workforce of Belonging, and MHPCA: Coverage Across the Lifespan. The horizon glows with rising light, evoking hope, strength, and transformative possibility.
Parity wasnβt enough. Prevention must be infrastructure.
Thatβs why I proposed the MHPCA β to ensure preventive care is covered across the lifespan by a new workforce: MHPCPs.
Lives depend on it.

How could she make an article about a Black woman being fired about a white man?!?
It was shocking she said it right in front of me. All the men who r**ed me were white. Too much trauma at the hands of white men. She really did flip the narrative. I thought she was going to have solidarity with me & what happened to another Black woman. No, I was so wrong π & worse I live with her
I didnβt think I would do be hurt, but I am. My roommate, a white woman, shared this article with me in email with a subject βracism in Washington Post. I thought she meant towards the Black womanβ¦ No, she meant the βracismβ towards the white man. No words

In the foreground, a delicate sprout pushes upward, its small leaves tinged red at the edges like theyβve been kissed by flame. The stem is slender but unwavering, rising from soil that looks scorched and brittle. Beneath the surface, a vast web of roots fans out in every direction, intricate and alive, glowing faintly as if lit from within. One central root runs straight down, carrying a vein of crimson like blood coursing through it. Above ground, the world is desolate. Jagged beams and crumbling debris jut out against a smoky orange sky, the aftermath of something catastrophic. There is no sign of water, no softness β only ruin and ash. Yet the plant grows here, insisting on life where everything else has fallen. Its quiet defiance transforms the scene: destruction frames it, but cannot consume it.
MHPCP has been growing underground, my little vampire plant. π©Έπ±
Decades of hidden roots, fed by blood, sweat, and tears.
Now it has a name. Now it rises.
MHPCP β Mental Health Preventive Care Practitioner.
Not a program. A movement.
See you next Friday. π±

Fascism is so self defeating. They're going to try and crack down on the entire left but they fired everyone with the expertise and experience that would enable them to do so. Instead, they have a bunch of idiots running the FBI who have no idea what they're doing.
A playful digital illustration shows a smiling yellow puppy with brown ears, sitting happily and raising one paw under the bold heading βI HIT SUBMIT!β β celebrating submitting a manifesto yesterday. Below, three icons with matching text describe the puppyβs chaotic excitement: a broken picture frame icon with the quote βI didnβt feel limited by word countsβI felt the limitless flow of the Divine,β a shattered vase icon with the quote βThis manifesto is not theory alone. It is a reckoning,β and a chewed-up paper icon with the quote βIt dares to imagine prevention not as an afterthought, but as a structural intervention.β The overall tone is joyful, playful, and celebratory.
πΎπ Yesterday I hit submit on my 30-page MHPCP Manifesto to Disability & Society. Today I get to share it with you β and that feels like the start of something real. #MHPCP #DisabilityJustice #MentalHealthPrevention
