                      Thursday, November 19, 2015

  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Dr. Harriet Hall for 
receiving the West Chamber's 2015 Celebrate Women Award. This award 
celebrates local women leaders with drive, perseverance and service to 
their community.
  Dr. Hall has made a significant contribution to the community through 
advocacy, passion and unwavering commitment to people with mental 
health disorders and their families. She has worked to reduce the 
stigma of mental illness, to bring the public's attention to urgent 
matters of mental health, and collaborated with government and business 
leaders to produce innovative changes for mental health care. Dr. 
Hall's contributions extend beyond her work in the mental health field 
and with her help for some of the neediest portions of the community 
such as the homeless, indigent and families in turmoil.
  I extend my deepest congratulations to Dr. Harriet Hall for receiving 
the 2015 Celebrate Women Award. Thank you for your leadership and 
service to the community.
