Mahalo nui to the latest cohort of CPP therapists from Hawai'i and to AIMH-HI for all of your support and aloha.

We completed our 18-month cohort this week, and they put together a beautiful book about their CPP journey. I treasure each page and thought I would share a few of their words. A hui ho.

Today as we honor and celebrate Juneteenth, we thought many might find inspiration in hearing from Dr. Opal Lee, the "grandmother of Juneteenth." While the video is from 4 years ago, she is nearly 100 today and is still going. She reminds us that each of us can raise our voice and move our feet towards freedom, no matter what our age.

CPP celebrates Juneteenth, Dr. Opal Lee, and the spirit and fight for freedom for all.

The "Grandmother of Juneteenth" spent years walking from Texas to W...
