Colleagues,

I ask that you review and circulate this attached invitation to the E.Y. Williams Symposium on "Mental Health Double Trouble" being held at Howard University, Wednesday, November 1, 2005. The focus will be on substance abuse and chronic illness. If you live in the DC area this will be a great way to gain some new knowledge and receive CE credits.

If you need additional information please call Ms. Emma Avery-Fair at 865-6612.

Please pass this on to other colleagues you think might be interested. I do hope to see some of you at this annual symposium.

With great appreciation,

TOY
