Rural Minds VP of Communications Julie Lux Speaks on Caregiver Action Network Webinar
Julie’s segment runs from 27:50 — 33:55.
Rural Minds VP of Communications Julie Lux was recently featured on a webinar hosted by the Caregiver Action Network: From Stigma to Support: A Caregiver’s Role in Mental Health Care & Substance Use Recovery.
“Stigma remains one of the most powerful—and painful—barriers for those navigating mental health and substance use challenges. This powerful conversation, hosted by Caregiver Action Network, features lived experiences and expert insights into how stigma impacts individuals, families, and entire communities—and what we can do to break the silence.
In this webinar, you'll hear from:
ESPN reporter & author Lauren Sisler, who shares her moving personal story of loss, shame, and recovery
Julie Lux of Rural Minds, addressing stigma and mental health in rural communities
Former Congresswoman Mary Bono, co-founder of MAPA (Mothers for Awareness and Prevention of Drug Abuse)
Marvell Adams Jr., CEO of Caregiver Action Network, discussing the resources and strategies available to caregivers
And more
Together, we explore how stigma delays care, deepens shame, and isolates families—and how conversation, connection, and advocacy can change that.”
