Deb: DBSA was exactly the group we needed many years ago when we had someone close to us diagnosed with a mood disorder. I have served as Treasurer for many years and would like to continue on the Board as a way of "giving back" to the organization. I have had the opportunity to meet many people that I admire and challenge us each day to live our best!

Miriam: I have been a member of DBSA since 2009, and a board member and facilitator for about 10 years. DBSA has helped me live with my mental health issues, which is why I stepped up into a leadership position, to help others as DBSA helped me.

Carolyn: I want to be on the board because I want to see this group continue its good work. I’ve enjoyed helping with different projects that are important to everyone.

Kirk: I wish to run on the board for DBSA in 2025. Big believer in group therapy. I've been fortunate to have met some wonderful people at DBSA throughout the years. I like hearing uplifting stories from others and new insights on how to deal with day to day life. These groups matter and help change lives.

Haley: Hello everyone! My name is Haley and I would love to be on the board, because this group has saved my life many times. I would love to be able to help others the way everyone has helped me. This group is very special to me, because every Thursday I walk through that door I feel welcomed and understood. I am so thankful for all of you.

Steve:I would love to continue to be a part of the DBSA board. I feel that I have a lot to contribute to our group. Since I have been a member of the DBSA board, I feel like I have personally grown a tremendous amount over the past year. I truly enjoy engaging with my friends each week on Thursday nights. I look forward to contributing even more over the next year , and to continue to share my passion in life, which is continuing to help others to successfully navigate our journey in life.

Crystal: My name is Crystal and I have been a member of DBSA since October 2021. There are several reasons why I am running to be on the board but, the most important reason is that I want to help maintain the inclusive values that make DBSA DBSA. I have attended several support groups outside of DBSA but none of them were as fun or open or honest as this group has been to me.

Justin: I am Justin. I have been very positively impacted by coming to group since August 2024. I think that going forward I would like to participate in outreach and impacting others in a positive way. Thank you for your consideration.
