Lest my recent blog posts imply that pharmaceutical companies are, hands down, the "bad guys," here's a perfect example of the good work they can do for communities:

Through its "Support Partners" women-and-depression initiative, Eli Lilly is funding an educational program for women and their support partners in Seattle on Thursday, July 20, with guest speakers including actress Linda Dano sharing her personal story and local physician Dr. Sally Edwards speaking about recognizing symptoms of depression, understanding what can trigger the illness, and how to map out a wellness plan and get help.

A similar program is also planned for Houston in the near future. If you want to be alerted of the details, sign up for the free e-newsletter at the Lilly's Support Partners program website.
