What People Are Saying…

“I wanted more knowledge – you can never know and learn too much! And I’ve learned more from Julie than anywhere else.”     – grace, grandmother

“I appreciate Julie as a teacher who’s been through the lived experience.  I’m happy to see parents of younger kids getting resources like Collaborative Problem Solving, the toolkit, and information about suicide risks and what to look out for in their children.”     – maryanne, mom

“I wish I knew all this before. I was trusting the school to guide us. Now I am having better experiences with my son.  I especially like the individualized care plan.”     – tim, dad

“Julie is one-of-a-kind.  She truly cares and is there to support you any way she can.”   -nikki, mom

“Having a warm hand to hold, having you, has made a real difference for us.  Julie, you’ve been so helpful.  Please keep doing this work – you’re really good at it!  We are so grateful.”     – kaye and harold, parents

“Julie provides a sense of leadership that is rooted in a deep understanding for systems change and also through a deep sense of compassion and empathy for the challenges associated with being a parent to a child living with mental illness.”     – emily, social worker student

“I have been a mental health counselor for decades. Ms. Magers is by far the most determined parent advocate I have had the honor to work with. She is fierce in her compassion and willingness to do the work necessary to advocate for and secure resources.  Even more notable is her sincere belief in the value and power of having families involved in policy and service decisions.”     – connie, mental health counselor

“It was truly inspirational to meet Julie and hear not just her story, but how she had turned her frustrations and disappointments into a program to help others. Her passion to help others in need, her ability to communicate clearly and professionally and her non-judgmental character and compassion will serve the community very well.”     – julie, health care systems
