Update on Ransom Ads

The Wall Street Journal Health blog reports that the NYU Child Study Center is pulling the controversial "Ransom Notes" public awareness campaign. The intention of the campaign was to raise awareness of the problem of untreated mental health illnesses in children. But many protested that the campaign went too far.

The NYU Child Study Center says they will continue the dialogue on mental illness in the coming year. See the link to the study center statement here: http://www.aboutourkids.org/about_us/public_awareness##
