Morgan Brown Blogg on Alternative Mental Health
Morgan Brown’s Blogg – Link NHT's Alternative Mental Health Resources Page - Norsehorse's Home Turf Alternative Mental Health Resources Page: This is a resource (or links) page concerning information about alternatives to the traditional, medical model-based, mental health system. Morgan resides within the Central Vermont area. Although he blogs about many things in general, because his life experiences include having lived homeless off and on over several years in many of its various forms, as well as formerly having been on the receiving end of the public mental health system, these and related matters *sometimes* find their way into certain blog posts in one fashion or another. He gains online access via public sites, computers of friends and allies, as well as a recently donated laptop with wireless Internet capability. http://nht_amhl1.blogspot.com/
