Sometimes we stop and think if there is a reason to do this page and to keep up with developing newer and better ways for it to reach people. I want to take a moment to reflect on the information collected this past year by our staff and of which is part of the basis for spurring on the work of this page and it's counterpart projects within. We have to remember the following:

	In the United States the second largest minority class at this time is composed of 49 million strong who are the handicapped of this country!
	Last year this country lost over 53 Billion dollars in productivity to missed work due to Depressive Disorders.
	In the Commonwealth of Virginia alone some 336,000 persons are receiving help through the mental health services of the state.
	By the year 2006 the World Health Organization has reported that the #1 disability WORLDWIDE will be DEPRESSION.
	By the year 2016 the WHO reported the #2 most financially costly disease in the United States will be Depression second only to Heart Disease.

WE think this is good reason to continue our work.
