NEED FOR MENTAL HEALTH
COUNSELING FOR CHILDREN AND
CITIZENS AFTER THE RECENT
VIOLENCE SHOWN ON T-V AND SOCIAL
MEDIA.
STATE REP. ANTONIO PARKINSON /
MEMPHIS: "Hopelessness for their
own lives and the lives of
others, along with insensitivity
to violence, is only two of the
many roots in the minds of those
that have been exposed to
repeated acts of violence."
Annette:
TO STOP THE CYCLE OF VIOLENCE...
PASTORS ARE OFFERING FREE MENTAL
HEALTH COUNSELING TO THOSE WHO
WERE AFFECTED BY THE KILLING OF
