Mental Health Bell



Standing the bell in the McKean County Court House rotunda are, from left, Lee Sizemore, administrator of the Human Services Department; and three leaders from the Step Drop-in Center at 62 Main Street, Bradford: Maggie Travis, Patty Babb and Tim Sawdey. The Step delegation had presented background on the Mental Health Bell to the County Commissioners at their meeting, and announced plans to ring a symbolic bell at the court house and at the Bradford gazebo. The national Mental Health Association bell was cast from shackles that once bound the mentally ill before modern care for mental illness and emotional disorders was provided.  Martha Knight Photo
