OUR GOALS
There is so much need in the mental health community, whether it is legislation to provide
better care and services for our mentally disabled, to fund research for new medications or
offer support to those afflicted with schizophrenia and their families. In Barry’s memory,
we have created the Shed A Light program. Our goals are:
- To support organizations on a local level, such as NAMI (National Alliance for the
Mentally Ill) and others, for specific projects, facilities and programs that help the
individual and family cope with schizophrenia.
- To support organizations that are doing work in the research of schizophrenia with the
goal of earlier diagnosis, medical treatment and improved medicinal impact of medication.
- To support organizations that are focusing on growing awareness of and education about
schizophrenia.
- To support on an individual or family case by case basis, to aid them in financial assistance
in the dealing with their schizophrenia challenge
