The Family Support Foundation for Mental Illness announces today the official launch of http://www.fsfmi.org, a website devoted to increasing awareness and understanding of mental illness issues, supporting legislation that benefits those suffering from mental illness and their families, and fundraising and events that help support qualifying families with significant unreimbursed mental healthcare expenses and other non-profit organizations that have been strong and effective leaders on issues consistent with the Foundation's mission.

The Family Support Foundation website, http://www.fsfmi.org, provides information and resources on mental illness and the suffering that it causes. The site provides numerous ways that visitors can give back to help the Foundation with its mission in the form of donations, legislative petitions, online shopping that gives back a portion of an item's cost to the Foundation, and merchandise that shows support for the cause.

The Family Support Foundation for Mental Illness was established by Jonathan Foxman, President and CEO of MTPCS, LLC d/b/a Cellular One. With the launch of http://www.fsfmi.org, Foxman plans to expand the Family Support Foundation for Mental Illness on a national level. "The Family Support Foundation is committed to making a difference for this cause." stated Foxman. "With this new website, we hope to reduce the stigma around mental illness by providing a resource where individuals can learn more about mental illness issues and their symptoms, and offer a way for people to give back to support this very worthwhile cause."
