Video Transcript

"I'm so grateful for the community that's here and the people that I get to work with in a way that they inspire me every day."

"Every experience I've had with MHP thus far has been great, from the training to being able to get support, a community, sponsorships to go places I never thought I'd go."

"MHP has given me so much, I want to give back."

"Give you your own purpose, you know, just like doing something more. Just a good feeling for me. Now I can be productive."

"MHP has a long history of being a really trusted and reliable resource for peer specialists.

So these experiences already live within your walls."

"The incredible empowerment and the impact that peers have in the field of mental health."

"There's something really, really powerful that happens when you're connecting with someone who's sitting across from you and says, you know, I see you and I hear you. Because I've been there."

"...and just that little click. Wow, it's so powerful just to have somebody who understands exactly how you feel, because we can sympathize all day, but to have somebody else in the room with me, to say, I've done it too, I've experienced that too, allows for a bond that goes beyond words."

"That opened me up to talk to other people so I could coach them and have them get the aha moment again. I did it and I'm glad that I got into new ways of thinking."

"I'm able to be helpful just to know that, like, all that hard work I put through actually paid off."

"And I hope that everybody would get the opportunity to connect with that organization"

"At Mental Health Partnerships. Together..."

"Together..."

"Together..."

"Together...we build hope."

"Together...we build hope."

"We build hope."

"We build hope."

"Together...we build hope."

"Together...we build hope."

"Together...we build hope."

"Period!"
