| List Name |
bahai-mentalhealth (bahai-mentalhealth) |
| Purpose: |
A new email list has been created for members of the Baha'i Faith called "bahai-mentalhealth." It is a list for Baha'is with mental disorders, for Baha'is who have a family member or are in a close, caring relationship with a person who has a mental disorder and for Baha'i mental health professionals.
The purposes of the list are to create a safe haven and online support group; to act as a forum for discussion of mental health issues within a Baha'i context; to share real life and Internet resources; to promote wellness. The list is founded on the belief that a free and full consultation between Baha'is with differing perspectives will lead to better understanding of and new approaches to mental health.
No information or advice exchanged on this list is intended to serve in the place of consultation with a mental health professional. Information and advice are for educational purposes only. This list is not associated with nor does it represent the views of any Baha'i institution. The list is a project of its owner, Bud Polk. |
