I have the pleasure of introducing the board of SeizingPsych - meet Kristan Kanyuch, Co-Founder & Executive Director.

As a caregiver who has navigated her son’s schizophrenia diagnosis and recovery, Kristan leads with lived experience, so families never have to face mental illness alone.

Lots of people asking about who has co-sponsored the articles of impeachment against RFK Jr. w/ @rephaleystevens.bsky.social. The answer is Rep. Eric Swalwell.

This is why we need people power NOW.
Sign the petition & call your rep asking them to co-sponsor:

Feds use DEI excuse to kill scientist training program in Atlanta Rather than investing in the future of U.S. science, the Trump administration is eliminating successful programs, using DEI as a scapegoat.

I collaborated w Emory, Spelman & Morehouse folks on this AJC op-ed:

"Rather than investing in the future of U.S. science, our government is eliminating successful programs, using DEI as a scapegoat."

RALLY: FIGHT FOR SCIENCE Stand Up For Science, in partnership with March for Our Lives, is bringing together scientists, activists, and the public to rally against the Trump Administration's reckless health agenda. As Directo...

JOIN THE FIGHT!

As HHS Secretary RFK Jr. and NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya are trying to legitimize a vision for American science and health research that bulldozes lives and livelihoods, we are putting people impacted by their quackery FRONT AND CENTER.

HEALTH AND SCIENCE FOR THE PEOPLE ‼️

I called out the FEMA Administrator last month about his, Trump's, and FEMA's failures to respond to disasters like floods and hurricanes.

Now FEMA employees themselves are confirming what we know β€” that our communities will face deadly consequences if we don't change course.

FEMAΒ staff tell Congress inexperience of Trump officials risks Katrina-style disaster The letter signed by 35 named employees said Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and acting FEMA director David Richardson lack qualifications.

Trump appointed a FEMA Administrator who didn’t know there was a hurricane season and now he’s dismantling the agency.

It’s a disaster in the making.

FEMA Employees Warn That Trump Is Gutting Disaster Response

The same Trump administration that wants to abolish FEMA is decimating disaster response and openly ignoring lessons learned from Hurricane Katrina that get help to people in need after natural disasters.

Republicans must join us in pushing for answers and accountability ASAP.

The 9 Worst RFK Jr. Decisions to Date β€” STAND UP FOR SCIENCE RFK Jr.'s actions undermine scientific progress, public trust, and the health of millions. Stand Up For Science won't stand for it. Start here.

β€œFrom citing non-existent studies generated by the FDA’s AI tool β€˜Elsa’ to mischaracterizing real research on the COVID-19 vaccine, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has repeatedly spread false claims”

In fact, RFK has screwed us so often, @standupforscience.bsky.social struggled to restrict its list to 9!
