Bystander Intervention Training to STOP anti-Asian/American and Xenophobic Harassment
June 3, 10, 18, 25, 2020
“This training gave me new tools to support someone experiencing discrimination. I had always thought my only option was to directly engage with the aggressor, which was terrifying to me. To know I have a lot of other tools I can use will be very helpful.” EM, Oregon State University
“I appreciate having clear and effective strategies that can be utilized immediately.” HNN, Bates Center for Purposeful Work
“Before this training, I doubt I would’ve intervened for fear of making things worse, but now I’m confident that I’m equipped with the skills necessary to diffuse any situation I may encounter.” BBB

Today I learned how to identify a hazardous tree situation and how to estimate the falling distance of a tree. Also I learned that severe wind and saturated soil can fell a tree, even a healthy one. I see a metaphor—sometimes under a combination of circumstances, anyone can get mental illness (falling of the mind).
I thought about what Glenn Close said in the commercial with her sister that was filmed at Grand Central Station in New York City. “1 in 6 adults suffer from a diagnosable mental illness.”
www.BringChange2Mind.org 1 in 6 adults and almost 1 in 10 children suffer from a diagnosable mental illness.
Sincerely,

As an author and a community spirit, I, Teresa LeYung Ryan, use my novel Love Made of Heart to shed light on stigmas suffered by women, men and children with mental illness/traumas to the mind. I speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves.
