The Heinz C. Prechter Bipolar Research Fund at the University of Michigan Depression Center is pleased to announce a luncheon featuring keynote speaker Margaret Trudeau, former first lady of Canada and international mental health advocate.

The luncheon will take place on Thursday, Oct. 14, at “The Henry” hotel (formerly known as the Ritz-Carlton) in Dearborn. As a longtime mental health advocate, Margaret Trudeau will offer inspirational words about her own battle with bipolar disorder and her message of hope in finding a balance of mind, body and spirit.

All proceeds raised by the luncheon with Margaret Trudeau will benefit the Heinz C. Prechter Bipolar Research Fund's gene repository, the only independently funded repository in the nation.
