Strong is defined as able to withstand great force or pressure. We believe this is a really cool way to describe the incredible members that we get to serve everyday. Many of the symptoms that a person with a Serious Mental Illness has to live with are unimaginable for most of us, but our members are strong! They are resilient. It’s safe to say, as staff, our members have taught us more about life and strength than we could ever hope to teach them.
We came up with this hashtag and we encourage YOU to use it on social media whenever you post something encouraging or uplifting. Please don’t use it in anything political or controversial. Let’s keep it positive and let’s show the world what it means to be #BirchTreeStrong!
