New York Charity Turned Crisis Into Mighty Mental Health Crusade
Welcome Hudson Valley! This is Conor Walsh, host of In Touch, Townsquare Media of the Hudson Valley’s Award-Winning Public Affairs and Issues program.
This week on In Touch, we speak with Donna Thomas of James’s Warr;ors. May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and we talk about how Donna uses her platform to spread mental health awareness to schools and the community. Donna recounts her story losing her son James, and how she is using her story to save lives.

Because of the awesome success of In Touch over the last year, we are expanding! We are launching a new spin-off series under the In Touch umbrella called Townsquare Spotlights. These Spotlights branch out from the typical Hudson Valley programming and focus on amazing celebrities and leaders across the country who are making an impact in pop culture. You can check out our latest spotlights with Billboard-charting musician AJ Croce, Hollywood icon Clint Howard, and Golden Globe Nominated Actress Mel Harris wherever you enjoy In Touch.
