NASW-Kentucky is screening "A Sister's Call" at our annual conference
 
In 1977, Call Richmond disappeared. 20 Years later, his sister Rebecca found him homeless, alone and suffering from severe paranoid schizophrenia. Filmed over fourteen years, A SISTER'S CALL follows Rebecca's journey to "bring her brother back" from the depths of his homelessness and his schizophrenia. Through helping Call, Rebecca and her family confront the issues of their dark past and attempt to overcome the complicated family dynamic that comes with caring for the mentally ill.
