On Tuesday April 21, more than 300 participants joined Baltimore for the first-ever virtual event, Community Conversations: Navigating Emotional Wellness During Uncertain Times. This event was presented in partnership with NAMI Metro Baltimore and Sheppard Pratt. Experts Dr. Todd Peters and Dr. Brad Piergrossi shared how to take care of yourself and others along with the best means of coping with anxiety, depression, and isolation. You can view the full recorded discussion below.
Lucinda Levine of Inkquiry Visuals illustrated our conversation and turned it into a work of art.
