I was turned onto you by KJ from twitter. I am so new to that world but when I found out about you...I thought it was definitely a great and innovative way to connect the world with news and stories that would otherwise be kept in the shadows. I was promoting an event that involves Canadians to vote for an important idea. Our work is changing ... Read Morelives and perceptions about bipolar disorder but to date, finding community support has been a challenge. Here is the link if you would like to check it out http://www.avivacommunityfund.org/ideas/acf1522

We were grateful for the article that KJ did for us for your journal, it was not only appreciated but really exciting to talk to somebody from the land of Twitter...I never knew if my posts were actually being seen.
Cheers and thanks again,
Michelle
