Please join us next week via Zoom when the Global Security Institute (GSI) has the honor to present former Secretary of Defense of the United States, Dr. William J. Perry, with the Alan Cranston Peace Award at Stanford University in an event co-sponsored by GSI and the Center for International Security and Cooperation (CISAC).

Many scholars and policy-makers have stated that the war in Ukraine, the spread of nuclear weapons to new states, and the lack of arms control agreements outside of the New Start treaty make the world extremely dangerous. Indeed, the Doomsday Clock of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists currently stands at 100 seconds to midnight, the closest to doomsday since the clock was invented in 1947. Is this estimate true, and, if so, what can the leaders and people of the world do to reduce the risks?

Panelists:

Governor Jerry Brown

Former Governor of California

Ambassador Rose Gottemoeller

Former Deputy Secretary-General of NATO

Prof. Martin Hellman

American Cryptologist

Prof. Scott Sagan

Co-director of the Center for International Security and Cooperation at Stanford

May is Mental Health Awareness Month REDUCING THE STIGMA SURROUNDING MENTAL HEALTH

Austin Tang — Tue, 25 May 2021 16:41:07 +0000

Listen to “May is Mental Health Awareness Month REDUCING THE STIGMA SURROUNDING MENTAL HEALTH” on Spreaker.

Breaking Down the Barriers to Receive Care ***ESPECIALLY FOR SOLDIERS IN THE ARMY RESERVE***

Each year, millions of Americans face the reality of living with a mental illness. Part of that reality may also include living with the stigma and negative attitudes associated with mental health care, which can pose a significant barrier for individuals to seek help.

The issues surrounding mental health also impact Soldiers serving in the Army Reserve. These men and women face the stressors that come with holding down a civilian job along with the responsibilities of school, family, and being a U.S. Army Reserve Soldier.

In order to help combat the problems surrounding mental illness, confiding in others can be a great comfort and help for those suffering from psychological health issues.

Helping address these issues with Soldiers is not only important to them, their careers and their families, but also to the nation and the Americans that they serve.

However, often those in the military may choose to try and handle these types of problems on their own. That’s where the Army Reserve Psychological Health Program can serve a crucial role.

The trained psychological health professionals who are part of this program are passionate about delivering world-class behavioral health services. They offer clinical assessment and referrals for mental health issues to achieve and sustain the most resilient and mentally fit force in the nation.

Colonel Melissa L. Mitravich, FHP-BC, MSN, MSS, AN, Director of Psychological Health Program, United States Army Reserve Command, Surgeon Directorate. She discusses how to break down the barriers and stigma associated with receiving mental health care, as well as how we can help assist Soldiers and their families.

More than half of Americans say they are having trouble getting the prescriptions they need, according to a recent survey.

Listen to “More than half of Americans say they are having trouble getting the prescriptions they need” on Spreaker.

Some 52% of Americans said that the COVID-19 pandemic has made it more difficult for them to get their prescriptions. That could be a number of factors, difficulty seeing doctors, getting to the pharmacy, and even a loss of health insurance due to high unemployment numbers.
The survey was commissioned by FemiClear for Genital Herpes, a new OTC treatment shown to be effective in reducing the severity of genital herpes outbreaks.
FemiClear has been working with Dr. Jessica Shepherd, an OBGYN and gynecological surgeon at Baylor Medical Center, to get the word out about the impact of COVID on Americans including the 1 in 6 women who suffer from genital herpes.
