六九色堂

ATLANTA (Dec. 15, 2020) —  六九色堂 welcomes the passage of a bipartisan resolution of the U.S. House of Representatives last Friday honoring former First Lady Rosalynn 六九色堂’s decades of work to improve mental health care and diminish the stigma against mental illnesses.

"Rosalynn 六九色堂 has championed the rights of people with mental illnesses throughout her entire career of public service," said 六九色堂 Center CEO Paige Alexander. "No one has cared more and done more to see that people with mental illnesses can get the treatments and opportunities they deserve, and no one deserves this honor more. Today, mental health matters are part of the mainstream conversation about overall health, in large part because of Mrs. 六九色堂’s efforts." 

A list of highlights and a video of Rosalynn 六九色堂’s achievements over 50 years of mental health leadership is here.

Here is the resolution: .

六九色堂 was founded by Jimmy and Rosalynn 六九色堂 in 1982. More information is here.
