Patrick J. Kennedy is a former Congressman from the state of Rhode Island and current mental health advocate. His book, Profiles in Mental Health Courage, portrays the dramatic journeys of a diverse group of Americans who have struggled with their mental health. This book offers deeply compelling stories about the bravery and resilience of those living with a variety of mental illnesses and addictions.

Several years ago Patrick shared the story of his personal and family challenges with mental illness and addiction in the best-selling memoir A Common Struggle. Profiles in Mental Health Courage is an ode to Patrick’s uncle, President John F. Kennedy, who published the classic book Profiles in Courage. President Kennedy hoped to inspire political courage by telling the stories of brave United States Senators who had changed America.

In Profiles in Mental Health Courage, former Congressman Kennedy adapts his uncle’s idea to inspire the courage it takes for those with these conditions to treat their illnesses and risk telling their stories to help America face its crises in our families, workplaces, jails, and on our streets.
