Today, NARSAD is the world’s leading charity dedicated to mental health research, thanks to the generosity and commitment of thousands of donors. Since 1987, the organization has raised and awarded more than $220 million in grants to 2,500 scientists around the world who are conducting cutting-edge research. “To Find a Cure” illumines how these two decades of research have led to progress in understanding and treating serious mental illness, to reducing stigma and to restoring hope. In addition to Mrs. Lieber’s story, video highlights include:
