Guest: Charla Collins
Charla’s daughter Kylee lives with severe mental illness. After suffering a traumatic brain injury in her teens she eventually turned to drugs, and with little resources available to get her the long term mental health care she needs, she often disappears into the streets, going long periods without contact. During a particular instance in 2021, Charla went out to look for her.
Here, she shares the knowledge and wisdom she has gained through her many searches to find, and help, her daughter.
