The Child Mind Institute is once again joining Advertising Week New York, this year virtually, for a special main-stage conversation on mental health, “Great Minds Think Unalike.” In 2018 we were joined by Emma Stone, and last year by Jesse Eisenberg. This year Child Mind Institute president Harold S. Koplewicz, MD, will have a frank and funny conversation with actress, comedian, author, producer and mother Ali Wentworth about the challenges and opportunities of living with a mental health disorder like depression.
