| Margot Kidder Award
History will occur in Los Angeles on
Sept. 20, 2001. We want you to be there.
In 1996 actress Margot Kidder of Superman fame
made world headlines when the media placed a spotlight on her very public
episode of ill health in Los Angeles.
Rejecting
offers of more medications for her problems, Ms. Kidder researched the causes
behind her troubles and found she had hidden nutritional imbalances that no
doctor had ever looked for. After treating these nutritional issues, she
started on her road to wellness.
Today
Ms. Kidder has not only recovered without drugs and restored her career, but
she has become the nation's most vocal advocate for alternative mental health
treatments as well as the international spokesperson for Safe Harbor.
On September 20, 2001, Margot Kidder, the Woman
of Steel, makes a triumphant -- and healthy -- return to Los Angeles at the
Hollywood Room of the Westin
Bonaventure Hotel at 404 So. Figueroa.
That evening, in recognition of her remarkable
work, Safe Harbor will establish the Annual Margot Kidder Award. The
Margot Kidder Award honors courageous men and women of goodwill who have
advanced the use of safe, sensible, and effective alternative mental health
treatments that heal the causes and symptoms of suffering, but do no harm.
The first recipient will be Ms. Kidder herself.
This brilliant woman does what no other
celebrity will do: She speaks with wit, eloquence and a disarming frankness
about her views on the drawbacks of conventional treatment and the bright
future of alternative approaches.
Other speakers will include:
Awards will also be presented to Safe Harbor's
top contributors.
Hors d'oeuvres will be served before the event
with fine jazz music. Event music by jazz master Dave McConnell and
world-class sitarist Rahul Sakyaputra.
The tickets cost a very reasonable $60 before
Sept. 7 and $75 after that.
Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime event.
In years to come, the Margot Kidder Award will be the coveted gold standard
for achievement in the field of non-drug mental health treatment.
Your donation will forward the work of Safe
Harbor and AlternativeMentalHealth.com in educating the public, the medical
field and government agencies on non-drug treatments for mental health
problems.
