Tomorrow: ‘The More Dangerous State of the World and the Need for Fit Leadership’
An Epic Assembly of Leading Mental Health Experts with Leading National Security Experts will Occur
CONFERENCE THEME: ‘THE MUCH MORE DANGEROUS CASE OF DONALD TRUMP’
This special conference will be held in the Ballroom of the National Press Club in Washington, DC, on Friday, September 27, 2024, from 1 to 5 p.m. Eastern Time. The last hour will be a reception. You can register here to attend.
We are at an extremely critical time right now. That is why we are convening this major, unique, impacting conference a few weeks before the impending presidential election.
At no time has mental fitness in leadership been more important. Yet, at no time have we had a presidential campaign where mental fitness has been a more precarious issue. The year before the 2020 presidential election, our major conference, also at the National Press Club, “The Dangerous State of the World and the Need for Fit Leadership,” conference was considered important enough that it was broadcast for all 3 hours on C-Span. As never before or since, we brought together thirteen highly respected experts from many different areas of expertise, including psychiatry, law, political science, economics, history, journalism, climate science, and nuclear science. This year, we will be honing in on the theme of national security and mental fitness in the U.S. presidency. A new book by mental health experts will be released, issuing anew their ever more dire warnings.
We have a special web site solely dedicated to this upcoming conference. Registration is now open. The conference will begin at 1 p.m. and end at 4 p.m. ET, when we will hear from and interact with the foremost experts on presidential fitness of our time. Your ticket will also allow you to attend the post-conference reception with hors d’œuvres and drinks, where you will be able to meet and talk with the panelists.
We will discuss:
The importance of fit leadership in this dangerous world
A fitness evaluation we were able to perform in 2019
A dangerousness risk assessment we were able to perform in 2024
Research results revealing that mental health experts overwhelmingly believe it is our duty to educate the public about dangerous leadership

About the World Mental Health Coalition
In 2017, we saw that mental health associations were abdicating their responsibility under political pressure and keeping silent about an unprecedented public health emergency. As a result, we decided to form our own organization and to step in where others placed self-preservation and profit over their ethical duty to protect society. We now know that an overwhelming majority of mental health professionals agree with our stance. This is how we became the nation’s first and largest mental health professionals-only organization to address the issue of dangerous leadership and our professional societal responsibility.

Our urgent messaging will only begin with the conference. Immediately afterward, the full conference will be available online, but very importantly we will also have our video persons quickly select key short segments to be individually available as well as a one-hour documentary made from the full conference. Important excerpts will be featured on “The Weekend Show” with Anthony Davis. Then throughout the critical month of October, right up until election day, our newly-retained media relations company will be continually working to promote awareness of the conference with the major media. Therefore, please continue to help make this unique, vitally important, and extremely timely conference impactful through our GoFundMe fundraising drive. Thank you, in advance!
Announcement: There will be no weekly session this week on, “Recovering from Trump Contagion – Restoring Our Collective Mental Health.” Instead, there will be a sneak preview of a video for the conference and the premier of a recorded session on Friday, September 27, 2024, at 12 noon EDT/9 a.m. PDT. After this week, the live sessions will resume at our usual time on Fridays.

Excellent! Thank you Dr Bandy X. Lee for making this happen. I look forward to having access to the recording and documentary opportunities afterward. I have been listening to your conversations with Anthony Davis weekly.
As you requested, Bandy, I sent an urgent plea a short while ago to C-Span to cover the conference tomorrow.
