i am dedicated to the better treatment and occupational therepy for the mentally ill and trauma victims.in my country it is a veryclosed up subject and due to this we have a dire need to help peolpe to live a safe and protected life style by helping them to enhance in their talents and to make their talents into a self employed scheme.I would be most obliged if there will be an opportunity to discuss at lenght with someone or to direct me to an organization to work with to have a scheme like what i had mentioned. In a country with at war and with rebel groups fighting for a better rule since the year 1971 has seen 3 generarions of added trauma victims, mentally ill and poverty and the results of human traficking, protitution.grugs and the violent behaviour of people in the increase.I would like if there is away that there can be some kind of networking with your group and to start communicating for the future if there is an opening for me to start up my Foundation for Srilanka and Asia .i would be most grateful if you could reply and keep me informed if there is a possibility.
