On June 6, Mental Health America awarded its highest honor, the Clifford
W. Beers Award, to Harold V. House of Indianapolis for combating
negative social stigma of mental illness, fighting for legal protection
for mental health consumers, and creating programs within his community
that help young people with emotional problems develop full, productive
lives. House, who has survived bouts of clinical depression in the
mid-1990's, has spent the last decade teaching and counseling at-risk
and incarcerated youth in his community.
