(PRWEB) January 31, 2012

As a weight loss coach, Paul Johnson, of Quality Diet Drops, is always on the lookout for new information in his field.

The recent tragedy at Virginia Tech illuminates the colossal failure of government and public policy to all our citizens who have mental disabilities and are ignored, denied. blurred, blamed and are invisible.
