On the mental health theme there's a program at the Conway Public Library on Monday at 6:30 with 2 organizations presenting "In Our Own Voices." The gist of it is to gain a better understanding of people who have dealt or are dealing with mental illness, to debunk the myths about people with mental illness and to learn how they have triumphed over their condition(s) to lead productive and satisfying lives.
