Dr. Seefeld delivered talks on how to protect patient’s rights and natural alternatives used in mental health.
Over 7,600 nurses, medical, legal experts and local college students, seeking information about the mental health industry, have toured the museum since its opening in 2015.

About CCHR: Initially established by the Church of Scientology and renowned psychiatrist Dr. Thomas Szasz in 1969, CCHR’s mission is to eradicate abuses committed under the guise of mental health and enact patient and consumer protections. L. Ron Hubbard, founder of Scientology, first brought psychiatric imprisonment to wide public notice: “Thousands and thousands are seized without process of law, every week, over the ‘free world’ tortured, castrated, killed. All in the name of ‘mental health,’” he wrote in March 1969. www.cchrflorida.org
