Citizen Report: Recognizing and Coping with Mental Illness

Dawn Corbelli teaches a class called "Family-to-Family," which aims to provide information on mental illnesses, coping skills, and advocacy for family and friends of those dealing with mental illnesses. In this week's "Citizen Report," Dawn shares her personal motivation for taking on the classes: her story, and her daughter's story.
