This week's letters praise a new nonprofit for mental health care, advise on new rules for voting by mail and criticize statements on the homicide rate.

The mission of Here Tomorrow, which opened in late 2021, is to transform lives by building a community where mental health care is acceptable and accessible. In other words, stigma has been eradicated from their program.

Barriers to mental health care include wait lists, insurance issues and a national shortage of mental health practitioners. The Here Tomorrow folks can provide same-day support, a response time that can make the difference in success or failure. Plus, many services are free of charge.Services are delivered by highly trained and certified peer support specialists.

If you are an individual or have a family member who needs help, or have further questions, visit HereTomorrow.org, call or text 372-9087. Walk-ins are also accepted at 910 Third St. in Neptune Beach.A Jan. 7 letter commented on a Daniel Davis ad that didn't even mention that he is running for mayor. Back when thinking skills were considered important in education, I taught a unit on advertising to gifted fifth-graders.
