The
Church of Scientology in partnership with the Citizens Commission on Human
Rights Nashville Chapter (CCHR Nashville) is working to educate parents on
their basic rights as they relate to their children’s mental health and
well-being. On its website, cchrnashville.org, there is a tab specifically for
Parents, under which comes educational resources, helpful forms and more.   In
past years for World Mental Health Day, the group has hosted “lunch and learns”
on topics to help people. In 2017 it was “5 Tips to Overcome Attention Issues,”
and in 2018 it was “5 Tips for a Stress- Free Life.” This year, the group plans
to do something in person again to spread awareness about mental health and
maintaining a drug-free life.  World
Mental Health Day occurs each year on October 10th.  CCHR
has long been an advocate for human rights, especially as relates to patients’
rights in the field of mental health. At CCHRNashville.org/Report-Abuse, it
states, “If you or anyone you know has been harmed or damaged by psychiatric or
mental health “treatment,” please fill out the form below or download a report
form (pdf) (Word doc) and mail it in.” 















CCHR
is a non-profit, non-political, non-religious mental health watchdog. Its
mission is to eradicate abuses committed under the guise of mental health and
enact patient and consumer protections. CCHR receives reports about abuses in
the field of mental health and is especially interested in situations where persons
experienced abuse or damage due to a false diagnosis or unwanted and harmful
psychiatric treatments, such as psychiatric drugs, electroshock (ECT) and
electronic or magnetic brain stimulation (TMS). CCHR is often able to assist
with filing complaints, and can work with a person’s attorney to further
investigate the case. To contact CCHR Nashville for more information, visit
