Dianne Kokena

I’m a 65 year old wife, mother, and mammy (grandma). I’ve worked in a middle school and got to know several students who struggle with mental health. Our kids and most of our grandkids have a mental illness. I have depression, so I do understand at least a bit about how the struggle affects your life. I’m very passionate about making talking about mental illness something everyone is comfortable with and understand these illnesses.
