My name is Sylvia Beard-Blan.  I am a peer and one of the drivers for MHCAN.  I enjoy getting up each morning to go to work.  MHCAN has made a significant difference in my life.  Where I felt weak I now feel strong.  Where I couldn't speak now I talk too much.  I've learned to love myself and the people around me.
