Thursday, November 3, 2022 featuring award-winning actress and trauma survivor, Ashley Judd.

10:30am VIP Sponsor Reception/11:30am Luncheon

Ashley grew up with mental illness in her family. Her beloved mother, Naomi, lived for years with undiagnosed and untreated bipolar II; her father suffered from depression, and in 2006 Ashley herself went to in-patient treatment to heal emotional pain stemming from unresolved childhood trauma, grief and abuse. There, she learned recovery as a way of life, something she practices on a daily basis. Pushing back against generations of mental illness and the often- dysfunctional behaviors of those who must cope with a loved one’s disease, Ashley speaks with authority on the topic of the mental illness epidemic in our society. She offers personal examples of how her own life was affected, advice on how to love and support those who are ill, and information about evidence-based methods of treatment and how to reduce stigma. Ashley tells an ultimately hopeful story about survival and resilience that everyone can relate to.

Thank you for supporting our mission to empower survivors of trauma to thrive through self-care and community.
