At this year’s gala, The Health Museum will honor Dr. Elizabeth McIngvale for her dedication to making a difference in the lives of those with mental illness. Dr. McIngvale is nationally renowned for her work around obsessive compulsive disorder, mental illness, and mental health stigma, and is a sought-after speaker, an esteemed researcher, and advocate in her field. We could not be more thrilled to celebrate her impact on our community as a true Health Hero.
Can’t attend our Health Heroes Gala? You can still be part of the fun with our online Silent Auction! Every dollar raised will help us expand our educational and community programs, and spark interest in all generations about health, science and the human body!
