  • I’m sorry but I’m a bit confused why “Goldie” now needs a foundation.. I tried to check it out but it was down.

    “The Hawn Foundation :: Change the World One Mind at a Time is currently undergoing scheduled maintenance.”

    What am I missing… On one hand I am happy children with mental health disorders are have a new public voice… But how does she fit into I just don’t understand…?

  • @ Chato – Hmmm…unless I overlooked something, that “Change the World One Mind at a Time” wasn’t on there the day I posted this. Of course, I could’ve overlooked it. Either way, irrelevant – just thinking out loud, haha.

    Probably what’s going on with the maintenance thing is that they realized the site needed a revamp of some sort (at least, that’s what I’m hoping). When I visited it Thursday, after getting the Mental Health America announcement, it was clear it wasn’t exactly “fresh.”

    The Foundation itself, if I’m not mistaken, has been around since 2003. I didn’t know it existed (of course, that’s not saying much because I didn’t get into advocacy until 2007 and didn’t dive into this celebrity stuff until late last year), but I’m thinking it (the Foundation) might become more known/active now that she’s campaigned Congress. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

    How are you? :)

  • Hey there,
    Nice article! I also tried looking at the Hawn Foundation’s website and it is STILL reporting that maintenance message. What gives?

  • hello,

    this sounds like a wonderful program and i know for sure a young lady who would be having a much happier time in her mid teen years if there were a program for her during her grade school years. why does the program stop at 7th or 8th grade? i understand the benefit of starting this kind of thinking early, but are the teen years too late? this young person i speak of would be so much happier if she could learn how to deal with her fears and anger, if she could stop and think BEFORE she acts out. is it too late?

    kindly,
    patti
