The Connecting People & Places Podcast - Sheila Matthews & AbleChild

🎙️ On the next installment of The Connecting People & Places Podcast, we sit down with Sheila Matthews, co-founder of AbleChild, a national nonprofit dedicated to protecting parental rights and promoting informed consent in mental health and education.

Sheila shares the story behind AbleChild’s founding and their mission to ensure parents are fully informed when it comes to psychiatric diagnoses and medication decisions involving their children. We dive into the organization's advocacy work, the challenges families face, and the growing need for transparency and choice in today’s systems.
