my colleague terri byrne and i, i am gillian plumadore and i will start right off the bat with the mention of our awards ceremony, because idell wants to hear about it so much. we have -- this is our third year -- we have worked to put on the mental health services act award ceremony, which specifically exists to honor peers in our community, who have made advanced in their own recovery, who are out there in the community, doing amazing things, things that a lot of them a few years ago, maybe even just a few months ago never knew were possible for them. and so we are right now, terri and i are staff co-chairs for the awards ceremony committee. it's an ongoing process. we'll be meeting for the next few months and we'll be holding the awards ceremony in october. there will be more information available about that in the next few months. we are putting together our fliers, and our nomination forms, and doing outreach over the summer. so you will be hearing more about this, but remember you heard it here first. so we're really looking forward to that. it's going to be a fantastic event. and ve
