 Good morning, everyone. Thank you for being with us here today at the beautiful downtown San Antonio Public Library for very special and colorful unveiling. I'm Rebecca Helterbrand. I'm Senior Vice President at Clarity Child Guidance Center. It's my privilege to welcome you all, and we know that you make choices every single day and where you're going to spend your time. I also realize it's a Sunday morning, so thank you for spending your time here with us today at our event. I'd also like to welcome and really thank Nowcast SA, which is right here in the back, videotaping and also live streaming this event today, for continuing their mission to inform and engage our community about important topics like one in five minds. May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and last year our advocacy campaign, One in Five Minds, commemorated the month by planting 3,000 pinwheels in front of the Alamo. The pinwheel represents the joy of childhood, and nearly all of those 3,000 pinwheels were this beautiful blue color. But every fifth pinwheel was a bright, distinct yellow to represent the one in five children who will have a mental, emotional, or behavioral disorder. Whether it's depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, our children need our love, care, concern, and support. And that one in five that represents about 80,000 children in Bear County alone. And we know that our region is an epicenter for all of South Texas, and most of the kids that need help and treatment are not getting the care and concern and treatment that they need and deserve. The pinwheels at the Alamo event last year was a powerful and visually striking installation that drew attention to the thousands of children and families who are affected by mental illness. So we asked ourselves, how do we build upon the success of last year's event? Well we decided to collaborate with talented artists who could visually express the hope and healing that is available by ending the stigma and providing treatment for kids. These 17 talented and inspiring artists who you're going to meet today dedicated their time, their talent, and their energy to create larger than life pinwheels all around us today. These pinwheels with a four foot wingspan are visual reminders of the childhood that our kids deserve. They also demonstrate the big gaps in care for our kids and the big difference that each and every one of us can make today. Art is important. It creates conversation. These pinwheels are not only beautiful, but they exist to stimulate the conversations about mental illness and break down the barriers to treatment created by the intense stigma that has put upon our kids and our families. Mental illness is nothing to be ashamed of. With treatment, our kids can heal and graduate from school, succeed in their chosen career, and avoid the trap of addiction, incarceration, and homelessness. One in five minds, along with many of the community partners here today, hopes to end that cycle and increase the services and funding for families who are uninsured and underinsured. A pinwheel is a joyful symbol. When we see one, let's remember the children should reclaimed by the families who get the help that they need. And now I'd like to introduce our president and CEO, Fred Hines. Thank you, Rebecca. One in five minds is Texas's first Children's Mental Health Advocacy Campaign and was created to start the conversation about children's mental health. As many of you know, that's still a challenge, but thanks to events like this and many more sponsored by our community partners here today, it's becoming a little easier. Thanks to channels like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and others, people are speaking up and speaking out to advocate for our kids and inform others about mental health. Our most recent research showed that almost one-third of San Antonio parents, 30%, didn't know where to send their children in a mental health crisis, and 43% would send them to a local hospital unaware that psychiatric care is not available. It's hard to get help when you don't know where to turn. This is compounded by the limited availability of mental health professionals to care for these kids. In a 2015 report from Mental Health America, ranks Texas as, get this number, Texas is 50th in mental health workforce availability, with only one provider in 1,757 individuals, about five times less than the leading states. Finally, if a family can help, insurance can become a barrier to care. The same report ranks Texas 46th, 46th in the nation, with 40% of kids with ongoing mental and emotional disorders being inadequately insured, yet, in spite of these challenges, many families are still receiving effective mental health care across our community. Many in the audience are part of the system of care who dedicates their lives and careers to helping kids. We join you in championing children's futures. Clarity Child Guidance Center is proud to be a partner with all of you. We are also pleased to be celebrating our third year of the One in Five Minds Advocacy Campaign. If you've been on the One in Five Minds website, there are stories shared there about the reality of mental illness, and many of these stories are stories of hope. You're about to hear a story about how 17 artists were inspired to lend their talent to supporting children's mental health, and how it led to the Pinwheel Gallery that's displayed before us this morning. It's now my distinct pleasure and privilege to introduce Rex Hausman. Rex is an artist who has shown his work nationally and internationally, including a beautiful piece in the lobby of our outpatient services facility. Rex also brought together this team of gifted artists for this amazing project. Rex is the Gallery and Arts Program Director for Hausman Millworks, a creative community here in San Antonio, and I'd like to welcome him up to the podium now to introduce this campaign and the artists involved. With special thanks, Rex Hausman. Hi, everybody. I've got to open this thing. We pause for applause. Okay. Thank you, Fred, and thank you all. It's a special morning, and it truly is fate that we're celebrating here at the San Antonio Public Library, certainly because of the beautiful colors and architecture and artwork that are displayed around us. But there's another reason. When this library was opened in 1995, my parents, Jean and Renee Hausman, who were present here, were asked of Hausman & Hausman Design Company, now known as Hausman Millworks, a creative community in Alta Vista, were selected to handcraft the furniture here. I believe some of the booktables and big tables. I believe many of the pieces are still here today. So to be standing here to introduce this artwork in a building where 20 years ago we displayed our family's woodwork is really special. As Fred mentioned, I met the team at Clarity Child Guidance Center when they asked me to display my work in their new outpatient services lobby facility. Through conversation, I learned about the work they're doing in the community with their one-in-five minds advocacy campaign. We talked about what a group of artists could do with pinwheels, and we loved the idea. There's a healing element to art. I know personally. And I thought if we could also use art to inspire change, it could be a dynamic project, many people working together. I called a few friends who were artists, and they were very interested in what Clarity Child Guidance Center was doing. They fully supported the project with their artistic efforts. And to them, I thank. They thank them very much. Many of us are familiar with the impact of mental illness, and knowing this work could go a long way, which would provide help for children made it an easy decision to participate for all the artists involved. There are 17 artists in all. Who I'm about to introduce to you. And we were all given the same assignment, take a blank four-foot pinwheel and create something that interprets our view of children, mental illness, most importantly care and hope. What you see before you is the result of a creative collaboration. A visual campaign we call Pinwheels of Change. For me personally, I think it's a great opportunity to create something that I'm not familiar with. For me personally, it was an intensely personal experience. My pinwheel is about simplicity at first, and five basic colors that form the five wings of the pinwheel itself. However, when one looks inside the folds of each wing, you see the true heart of the matter, with depictions of family, friends, and of course coffee, all important facets of my life. When the pinwheel spins, you see the things that I think about most, and this is what I hope conceptually children have to look forward to when gaining clarity through a tumultuous time. For it is truly in the simplest things that the most wonderful things are in life. Each artist's work tells an individual story, and I encourage you all to meet the artists here today, and hear about the inspiration of their work. All of the artists have worked with us at the Hausmann Millworks through our gallery, and many have active studios. I will introduce each artist to you as they stand by their pinwheel. If we could also hold applause until the end when all the artists are named, it would be appreciated. First and foremost, Augie and Will, two students who are involved with me in the Atelier program at the Millworks. If you guys could go stand by your pinwheel. David Almaguer, who's been at the studios probably the longest of anyone. Steve DeLuz, who also has a studio with us. Hector Garza, who has a studio. Albert Gonzalez, who we're really proud of and has a studio. Larry Graber, who has worked with us. Bruce Hahn, who drove in from Smithville. Kyle Johnson, who's from Los Angeles and has worked with the McNay, but couldn't be here today. Jane Lawrence, who couldn't be here today, was one of my professors at UTSA. Christina Sosa Noriega, who's here today. Kim Parker, who had a studio with us at the Millworks. Claire Rhodes-Stevensson, who's worked with us quite a bit. Gary Sweeney, who I believe was coming. He's not here yet. Luis Vega Treveno, who also isn't here. And Carla Valiz, who couldn't be here because she's in Mexico. Now we can applause these guys. And thank you all. It has been such a privilege to work on this project. On behalf of all the artists in Hausman Millworks, a creative community, thank you for being here today. And thank you guys for showing up today. Please share this with your friends and how they can go online to see the work, the pinwheels. And I do now, I would love, love to welcome Rebecca up front. Thank you. Thank you, Rex. On behalf of One in Five Minds and Clarity Child Guidance Center, we are honored by your support and overwhelmed by the work you and all the artists have put into creating these pinwheels. Please join me in thanking them yet again. The support doesn't end there. We have another artist who just, who's going to do it. As an example of how the community has embraced this campaign, many organizations were really stepping forward and we had organizations calling us and saying, we want one of those pinwheels. So we kind of had a list of organizations we wanted the pinwheels to go to, but we had literally organizations calling us up and saying, give us a pinwheel. That's the kind of support that you're hearing from the community so that they can have a chance to be inspired to end the stigma of mental illness. In a couple of days, literally starting tomorrow, these pinwheels are moving and going to new homes to be represented during the month of May and they'll spend that entire month there, inspiring and educating people. Of course, you're going to find a pinwheel at Clarity Child Guidance Center, but you're going to also find them at the Bear County Courthouse, Rack Space Headquarters, our host today, the San Antonio Public Library, the Children's Hospital of San Antonio, University Hospital and the Medical Center, Valero Energy's headquarters, HEB's newest downtown store to commemorate the year of downtown, the Bar Shop Jewish Community Center, and Zachary headquarters. We're very grateful for these partners. Please join me in giving them a round of applause. Now, at each of these sites, when you go to visit Zachary or Valero or HEB's downtown store, all these various areas that are listed on our website, oneandfiveminds.org, you will have an opportunity to post a picture. We know how popular selfies are, so I'm sure you can get your face in with a pinwheel. And you want to hashtag pinwheels4change using the number four, pinwheels4change. And you can also tag one and five minds on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. And because these are unique and amazing art displays, each one is also going to be available for purchase through an online bidding site with all the proceeds going to benefit and help fund children's treatment. In fact, you can start bidding today. So you can use your smartphone and go onto the website, oneandfiveminds.org. There's also information on each of these pinwheels. And you can visit the auction site and you can access a profile of what inspired these amazing artists to even design the work that they did. And some of them are deeply personal stories of their own journeys through mental health or with a loved one or how they were inspired when they visited Clarity Child Guidance Center and how the inspiration turned into the artwork you see here today. So make sure you take those photos, you hashtag and you link and you bid. Clarity Child Guidance Center is the only non-profit in all of South Texas providing a full continuum of mental health resources for children 17 and under, including services for children as young as three. Last year, we provided treatment to nearly 8,000 kids through our presence in the South Texas Medical Center. And most recently, we expanded and also had a clinic placed in the Westover Hills area. And we're growing through that expansion. We're projected to serve nearly 9,000 children in coming years. So thanks to the One in Five Minds campaign, more people are learning about mental illness and how care can make a tremendous difference. Please share this information with others that you know and speak up for children's mental health treatment. Our kids are counting on you to make a difference. Thank you all again for joining us for this special day. And make sure you pick up one of the schedules of all the One in Five Minds and other community partners, main mental health awareness events that are happening. So there's lots that you can do from walks to manicures to different things that are all listed on that schedule that I see you picking up right now on some of these tables. I also want to give a shout out to the fact that on our website, you can pull up this display and have children create their own unique artwork with pinwheels. In fact, in this display right over here to my left and your right, you've got a display of teens here at the San Antonio Public Library creating their own pinwheels for change. And finally, it's not in the script, but I want to give an incredible shout out to Team Clarity, led by Gerard Mijon. Gerard, if you would step forward. Step forward. Step forward. Gerard Mijon and Team Clarity really did an amazing job of working with the artists and really transposing our passion and faith for healing and the hope that comes with helping kids to these artists and we've been mutually inspired by this. So please, enjoy some refreshments, view these fabulous pinwheels and have this once in a lifetime opportunity to meet these artists and hear in front of their pinwheel why they were inspired to help us with this program. Thank you. It's actually, yeah, sure. Do you know what I'm going to call? What? And then you'll get in. Take a look. Yeah, yeah. I went to a drinker. Mine's here. So right there. It's set there. I went to a drinker. It's each water. It never stops. Well, is this one? Hi, buddy. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Sure. Sure. It's a pinwheel. Good for you. Good. Jay? You got audio? Are you good? Okay, we're going to interview the artist who's talking about how each of them came together. Okay? Slowly but surely. What you were just saying to her? Yes, ma'am. And talk about each one of them. Okay. So we're live? Just go for it? Thumbs up? My name is Rex Hausman and I'm with? Holiday Harris. Holiday Harris. We're talking about the pinwheels. So each pinwheel has a different thing to it. I'm going to get rid of this thing. You've got Carla Velez here, which is made of like thousands of little pieces of glass that she hand chipped. The thing weighs a ton. And then you have Larry Graber here, who's an incredible San Antonio artist. Pretty much 90% of these are all San Antonio artists and one artist from LA to show at the McNay. So it's linked to San Antonio. This is Hector Garza. He has like Lotavia cards inside of it. It comes from his background with stenciling and then little flowers. And I'm going to talk to you because I'd rather not talk to a camera. This is Bruce Hahn, who's from Smithville. And he's worked with us before in the gallery. He went to Stanford or Princeton as a school of one. That's a computer generated algorithm. This is Kyle Johnson with the fences. He's from LA and had a show at the McNay. Kim Parker's is in the back over here with the Eye of God in the center. And it all talks about what she's about, how she processes things. This is Will and Augie, who's a 10 and 11 year old, my students. Augie on the outside loves red pandas. He just loves them. I think he adopted one at a zoo. And then Will wrote inspirational quotes from all over San Antonio, like the Landau Library and put them on the inside. And his hope was that these kids could get courage through words like he does. Then there's mine up there with a bunch of details. On the outside it's super simple and there's a sanding disc from our shop which is metaphorically my dad's. It's actually Garrett and Jay's. They're awesome. Father and son team. And then inside is a whole bunch of explanations about what's important. So the concept behind it was when these kids are going through a really hard time their head is spinning, right? And you need to simplify things. But then the hope is that as you get inside the real matters of things it turns into family, friends, coffee, walking a dog. Really, really things that I look forward to every day. That's Carla, I mean Claire Rhodes Stevenson. She actually worked with children for 30 years. So a lot of hers was about what kids would think about. You know what, how she internalized it. Steve DeLuzes is gold leaf. And then on the inside it's actually words from Clarity when he visited. So he wrote different quotes from his experience at Clarity. Gary Sweeney's is over here with a Texas theme. You know like stars and horses and Luis Vega Treveno is a designer. And then Cristina Sosa Noriega and Albert Gonzalez. And then David Almaguer's was one of the artists that started the Millworks with us nine years ago and he's still there. And it's got doilies from his grandmother's kitchen table and then gold on the inside. And he thought of it as a merry gold. So when he was a kid he liked merry golds. And that wraps it up. Thank you so much. Did you like it? Yes. I think they're also beautiful and the meaning behind each of them is so special. Each artist putting in their true feelings and emotions behind each work of art. Oh we're turning this way? Very cool. Thank you.
