CAROLYN C. MATTINGLY AWARD FOR MENTAL HEALTH REPORTING NATIONAL PRESS FOUNDATION PARTNERSHIPIN JANUARY, WE BEGAN ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR OUR JOURNALISM AWARD, THE CAROLYN MATTINGLY AWARD FOR MENTAL HEALTH REPORTING. BY THE CLOSE OF ENTRIES IN EARLY MARCH, IT WAS YET ANOTHER RECORD NUMBER OF SUBMISSIONS FROM A WIDE-RANGING SPECTRUM OF JOURNALISTS, REPRESENTING MANY OF THE BIGGEST NAMES IN BROADCAST, PRINT, AND DIGITAL MEDIA. SINCE THE OUTSET, THIS INITIATIVE HAS BEEN A WONDERFUL PARTNERSHIP WITH THE NATIONAL PRESS FOUNDATION.IN LATE APRIL, THE COLORADO INDEPENDENT WAS ANNOUNCED AS THE WINNER FOR A STORY ON HOW THE KILLING OF A MENTALLY ILL MAN BY A POLICE OFFICER CHANGED A COMMUNITY. "THROUGH THE CRACKS: A STRANGER, A POLICE SHOOTING, AND A SMALL TOWN'S SILENCE," THE PIECE WAS WRITTEN BY NIKI TURNER, EDITOR OF THE RIO BLANCO HERALD TIMES, AND SUSAN GREENE, EDITOR OF THE COLORADO INDEPENDENT, A NONPROFIT IN DENVER."THE BREADTH AND DEPTH OF THE REPORTING WAS SPECTACULAR," THE JUDGES SAID. "THROUGH THE LENS OF ONE TRAGIC POLICE-SHOOTING, THIS COLLABORATIVE JOURNALISM PROJECT WAS ABLE TO PEEL BACK THE LAYERS TO SHOW HOW WARNING SIGNS ARE IGNORED, HOW RURAL TOWNS ARE UNEQUIPPED TO HANDLE MENTAL ILLNESS, AND HOW FAMILIES STRUGGLE WITH TOO FEW CHOICES." THE COMPETITION WAS SO INTENSE THAT THE JUDGES DECIDED TO AWARD AN HONORABLE MENTION TO KAISER HEALTH NEWS FOR "LETHAL PLANS: WHEN SENIORS TURN TO SUICIDE IN LONG-TERM CARE."UNFORTUNATELY, WE WERE UNABLE TO GATHER FOR OUR FORMAL AWARDS PRESENTATION AT THE NATIONAL PRESS CLUB IN WASHINGTON, DC IN MAY FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. I DID HOWEVER HAVE THE PRIVILEGE OF SPEAKING DIRECTLY WITH OUR WINNERS AND WAS DEEPLY TOUCHED BY THEIR EXPRESSIONS OF APPRECIATION. BOTH NIKI AND SUSAN SHARED A PERSONAL COMMITMENT TO MENTAL HEALTH ON AN ONGOING BASIS. WE LOOK FORWARD TO THE OPPORTUNITY TO INVITE THEM TO JOIN US, IN PERSON, SOMETIME NEXT YEAR.
MONTGOMERY COLLEGE FOUNDATION: MITCHELL GREENBERG SCHOLARSHIPSANOTHER PROMISE KEPT INITIATIVE IS WITH THE MONTGOMERY COLLEGE FOUNDATION, BASED IN THE MARYLAND SUBURBS OF WASHINGTON DC. WE ARE PARTICULARLY PLEASED WITH OUR EVOLVING RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS LARGE COMMUNITY COLLEGE THAT CONTINUOUSLY RANKS AMONG THE BEST IN THE COUNTRY. WE APPLAUD THEIR MESSAGE "WE EMBRACE OUR ROLE AS BOTH A COLLEGE AND A COMMUNITY." IN 2020 WE REAFFIRMED OUR COMMITMENT TO FUNDING NURSING SCHOLARSHIPS TO STUDENTS WHO HAVE IDENTIFIED AS HAVING AN ACTIVE INTEREST IN MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES AND MEET ESTABLISHED FINANCIAL AND GPA CRITERIA. WORTH NOTING IS THAT WE RECEIVED LETTERS FROM 5 STUDENTS WITH EXTENSIVE DETAILS OF THEIR INDIVIDUAL CHALLENGES AND PERSONALIZED APPRECIATION FOR OUR SUPPORT. "I WILL CONTINUE TO THRIVE IN THIS PROGRAM TO HONOR YOUR GIFT." ALEXA KING, A STUDENT RECIPIENT WROTE. WE ARE DELIGHTED TO REPORT THAT OUR COMMITMENT TO THESE AWARDS WILL CONTINUE IN 2021. AS IN THE PAST, THESE SCHOLARSHIPS ARE MADE IN THE MEMORY OF OUR GOOD FRIEND MITCHELL GREENBERG. MENTAL HEALTH EDUCATION: EXPANDING OUR MONTGOMERY COLLEGE PARTNERSHIPWE ALSO CONTINUE TO EXPAND OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FACULTY AND STUDENTS AT MONTGOMERY COLLEGE REGARDING MENTAL HEALTH EDUCATION. THIS YEAR WE WERE HONORED TO BE ASKED TO PARTICIPATE IN A SPECIAL PRESENTATION/CONVERSATION WITH THE INSTITUTION'S SENIOR STAFF AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS ABOUT THE COLLEGE'S ONGOING SUPPORT OF MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS AND GROWTH AS AN INSTITUTION. UNFORTUNATELY, THE APRIL 3 PRESENTATION WAS CANCELED DUE TO COVID-19 PRECAUTIONS, BUT WE HAVE BEEN INVITED TO CONTINUE OUR AGENDA WITH MONTGOMERY COLLEGE IN MARCH OF 2021, IN A PRESENTATION TO EMPLOYEES FOCUSING ON MENTAL HEALTH.
