Happy Birthday, Rosalynn Carter

Today, we’re celebrating what would’ve been former First Lady Rosalynn Carter’s 97th birthday.

Carter focused on mental health initiatives and erasing the stigma from mental health care. In 1982, Carter co-founded The Carter Center with her husband, former President Jimmy Carter, and served as the chair of The Carter Center Mental Health Task Force.

Rosalynn Carter was a trailblazer for mental health, early childhood immunization, human rights, and conflict resolution. She served as an inspiration to women everywhere.
