This is a nostalgic photo of this week's NEW author, Dave Brennan, and his brother, Jason. We hope that Dave's story helps others who are living with mental illness and/or love someone who is - know that they are not alone.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Dave is a caseworker for the PA Dept. of Human Services. He holds a BA in psychology and communication and an M.Ed. with an emphasis in special education. Although his full-time job is in human services, he likes to write! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
