Tuesday - Children's Mental Health and film screening of "Happy"

What a powerful interview with ParentsCAN advocate and parent of a child with bipolar disorder, Christine Lieber!  She told us her personal story with her daughter, and also reminded us of the valuable resource that is ParentsCAN.  Even if your child is NOT diagnosed and you only have concerns, you can call them!  They have so much information, guidance and support for you.

Their open house is today from 4 to 6, 1909 Jefferson St. in Napa.  For more information call them at 707.253.7444 or visit their website  parentscan.org

Comedian and inspirational speaker, Mike Pritchard, teamed up with film maker, Roko Bellic, this morning for a preview of Roko's latest documentary film, "Happy" playing Thursday night at the Napa Valley Opera House.  Both will be there to answer your questions and present this fascinating look at what TRULY makes people happy...and what does not!  I definitely want to go to this.

Tomorrow's show will make you smile, maybe even cry and will offer some fascinating information too.  Local author Hilary Homzie presents her newest teen book, Dr. Waters gives us the latest on what CT scanning brings to our community, Tess Hegeman introduces "Get on the Bus", a nonprofit that brings children to visit their incarcerated parent/s and John Thill from the Napa Library brings in your books of the week.
