The Stigma of Mental Illness


Back in 2007 I took an Abnormal Psychology class in preparation for graduate school and in that class I did a report on the Stigma of Mental Illness.  I created a website to go along with my report:


Check it out.  Do we really stigmatize people because of their speech or their gate (how they walk) or the way they look or where they park their car?

What do we know about disabilities anyway?  Should we check out http://www.ada.gov to read-up on the Americans with Disabilities Act?
