REPRESENTATIVES of the North Shore Schizophrenia Society have had a busy few weeks. At right, the society's executive director Cheryl Olney (left) and board president Cheryl Zipper present Dr. Rosalynd Holdsworth with the society's inaugural Responsiveness to Families Award. The award was created to honour the contribution of service providers who recognize the crucial role families play in ensuring people with serious mental illnesses receive the treatment and care they require. Holdsworth, a psychiatrist who works at Lions Gate Hospital and in private practice, was nominated by several families. At lower right, participants in the society's 22nd annual Walk the World For Schizophrenia take off from John Lawson Park June 23. Info: northshoreschizophrenia.org.
