ACTIVISTS WORKING TO BAN ECT

Here is a list of my allies fighting electroshock everyday.

Don Weitz and Dr. Bonnie Burstow are co-founders of the 4 year group called "Coalition Against Psychiatric Asssault (CAPA) which is located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada

I am member at large for CAPA. CAPA organized a protest on Mother's Day of this year in Toronto to protest the use of electroshock on women. 140 people showed up and it was a very successful event. This event will be held again next year on Mother's Day in Toronto. I will post the info when I get it next year on this website here.
