  • Mission

    Our mission is to educate the public about the unmet needs of people with SERIOUS MENTAL ILLNESS and ANOSOGNOSIA -- a neurocognitive symptom that leaves a person unable to recognize their illness, resulting in treatment refusal, noncompliance, and conflict with loved ones and professionals. We want to transform the educational, healthcare and government systems through LEAP -- evidence-based practices that helps create relationships that lead to treatment and recovery.
