Jordana Steinberg- A Powerful Mental Health Success Story

Front page extensive story in Sunday's Sacramento Bee tells the painful and powerful ultimately successful story of the mental health challenges that Darrell Steinberg and his family endured and overcame with his 20 year old daughter Jordana, which included hospitalizations and residential placement,

Now she is doing better and wants to become an advocate for others. While I knew about this generally for about the last six years, I had no idea now severe it was both for her and the family.   Nearly all of it was kept private until Jordana was ready to speak publicly about it.
