Ginger SmithServing on the PRS, Inc., Board of Directors is a commitment to support mental health priorities of dramatic importance to US national, regional, and local communities today. What the PRS Board and staff can achieve in the DC metropolitan region in the recovery of individuals - and their families - living with mental illness, emotional, and behavioral disorders depends heavily on the public and private financial resources that PRS and other worthy public and private organizations with similar goals can muster. Through its programs, PRS sets targets for tangible results for individuals receiving services - opportunities to achieve greater self-knowledge, personal wellness, stability, recovery, meaningful and sustainable employment, and to seek engaged and integrated lives in host communities. Achieving standards for these mental health outcomes in the DC metropolitan region is an urgent and crucial sociocultural and economic contending issue today in healthcare. |
