Every Mind Matters: The Many Dimensions of Mental Illness
The Hill brings together lawmakers, mental health experts, and advocates to discuss these questions and more and explore why prioritizing mental health is intrinsically linked to good health overall.
The United States is facing an unprecedented mental health crisis as two in five American adults reported experiencing symptoms of anxiety and depression in 2021. Fortunately, the country has witnessed a positive sea change in recognizing the importance of mental health and self-care in recent years, but significant work still remains to create a system that recognizes the nuances and needs of those with mental illness.
Schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disease, and post-traumatic stress disorder are just some of the many conditions affecting the 1 in 20 Americans experiencing serious mental illness today. The generalization of these disorders extends beyond everyday vernacular as one-size-fits-all policies, drugs and treatments continue to fail patients. Even when services are available, barriers like cost, cultural bias, and inconvenience often prevent people from accessing the care they need.
How can we break down the stigma associated with mental illness? How can we build a comprehensive care system to support all individuals affected by it?

THE JOHNSON COLLECTION - A Private Collection for Public Good
thejohnsoncollection.org/the-collection/
Sharing the art it stewards with communities across the country is The Johnson Collection’s essential purpose and propels our daily work. Much more than a physical place, TJC seeks to be a presence in American art, prioritizing access over location. Since 2013, the collection’s touring exhibitions have been loaned twenty-five times, placed without fee in partner museums with a combined annual attendance of over 1.2 million visitors. In its showcase of over 1,000 objects, TJC’s website functions as a digital museum, available anywhere and anytime.
What began as an interest in paintings by Carolina artists in 2002 has grown to encompass over 1,400 objects with provenances that span the centuries and chronicle the cultural evolution of the American South.
Today, The Johnson Collection counts iconic masterworks among its holdings, as well as representative pieces by an astonishing depth and breadth of artists, native and visiting, whose lives and legacies form the foundation of Southern art history. From William D. Washington’s The Burial of Latané to Malvin Gray Johnson’s Roll Jordan Roll, the collection embraces the region’s rich history and confronts its complexities, past and present.
.The contributions of women artists, ranging from Helen Turner—only the fourth woman elected to full membership in the National Academy of Design in 1921—to Alma Thomas—the first African American woman to have a solo exhibition at a major national museum in 1972—are accorded overdue attention, most notably in TJC's most recent publication and companion exhibition, Central to Their Lives: Southern Women Artists in the Johnson Collection. Landmark works by American artists of African descent such as Benny Andrews, Romare Bearden, Elizabeth Catlett, Aaron Douglas, William H. Johnson, Leo Twiggs, and Hale Woodruff pay homage to their makers' barrier-defying accomplishments. Modern paintings, prints, collages, and sculpture created by internationally renowned artists associated with the experimental arts enclave of Black Mountain College, including Josef Albers, Ruth Asawa, Ilya Bolotowsky, Elaine de Kooning, Robert Motherwell, Kenneth Noland, and Robert Rauschenberg highlight the North Carolina school's geographic proximity to the collection's home.
Hailed by The Magazine Antiques as having staged a "quiet art historical revolution" and expanding "the meaning of regional," The Johnson Collection heralds the pivotal role that art of the South plays in the national narrative. To that end, the collection's ambitious publication and exhibition strategies extend far beyond a single city's limit or a territorial divide.
Since 2012, TJC has produced four significant scholarly books—thoroughly researched and beautifully illustrated investigations of Southern art time periods, artists, and themes: Romantic Spirits: Nineteenth Century Paintings of the South (2012); From New York to Nebo: The Artistic Journey of Eugene Thomason (2014); Scenic Impressions: Southern Interpretations from the Johnson Collection (2015); and Central to Their Lives: Southern Women Artists in the Johnson Collection (2018). These volumes are accompanied by traveling exhibitions that have been loaned without fee to partner museums with a combined annual attendance of over 1.7 million visitors.
Smaller curated presentations rotate at the collection's hometown exhibition space, TJC Gallery. Individual objects are regularly made available for critical exhibitions such as La Biennale di Venezia, Afro-Atlantic Histories, Outliers and American Vanguard Art, Leap Before You Look: Black Mountain College, 1933-1957, Alma W. Thomas: Everything is Beautiful, Riffs and Relations: African American Artists and the European Modernist Tradition, and Bold, Cautious, True: Walt Whitman and American Art of the Civil War Era and featured in important publications and catalogues, including The New Encyclopedia of Southern Culture: Art & Architecture, and The Civil War and American Art.
In 2016, the state of South Carolina honored The Johnson Collection with the Governor’s Award for the Arts, its highest arts distinction. The commendation paid tribute to the Johnson family's enduring contributions: "Equally dedicated to arts advancement and arts accessibility, the Johnsons generously share their vision, energy, passion and resources to benefit the arts in South Carolina."
"Who can say what ignites a passion? Was it those three red roses frozen in blue? An awakened connection to one's geographical roots? Perhaps the familiarity of the road to Nebo? The nucleus of what was to become our collection was formed by such seemingly unrelated catalysts. Looking back, it was always the sense of place that drew George and me to beautiful pictures—pictures that capture not only the glorious landscape of the South, but that also enliven its unique culture and dynamic history." ~Susu Johnson, Chief Executive Officer
Material evaluation plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of your roof during the roof inspection process. This systematic assessment helps identify potential issues before they escalate, ensuring the longevity of your roofing materials. Inspectors thoroughly examine roofing materials, such as asphalt shingles, metal, and tiles, looking for signs of storm damage or wear and tear that could compromise the roof's performance.
Homeowners can safeguard their investments and maintain a safe shelter by prioritizing material evaluation during roof inspections. Understanding the conditions of your roofing materials enables proactive maintenance, thereby enhancing the lifespan of your roof and protecting your property from the elements.
Understanding Roof Material Evaluation
Understanding roof material evaluation is crucial for maintaining a home or building's integrity and longevity. This process involves analyzing various roofing materials to determine their performance, durability, and suitability for different environmental conditions.
A professional roof inspection provides valuable insights into signs of damage and helps homeowners and building managers make informed decisions about repairs, replacements, or upgrades. By comprehensively evaluating the materials used in a roof, potential issues can be identified early on, ensuring that the structure remains sound and safe.
The inspection results are often summarized in a detailed report, which guides homeowners or building owners in investing in the best materials for their specific needs, enhancing their properties' overall protection and energy efficiency.
Common Roofing Materials
When it comes to roofing, selecting a suitable material is crucial for durability and aesthetic appeal. Common roofing materials like asphalt shingles, metal roofs, clay tiles, and slate each offer unique characteristics that significantly influence the overall health of a roofing system.
- Asphalt shingles are famous for their affordability and easy installation. They typically last 15 to 30 years but may succumb to curling and granule loss.
- Metal roofs are known for longevity, often exceeding 50 years, and resistance to extreme weather, but improper installation can lead to leaks.
- Clay tiles provide a classic look and can last over a century, although their weight requires a solid understructure to prevent cracking.
- Slate is one of the most durable materials available, with lifespans exceeding 100 years, but it demands a higher initial investment and specialized installation.
Evaluating the performance and condition of these roofing materials is essential; issues such as curling, cracking, or leakage can detract from their lifespan and overall integrity, underscoring the importance of consulting a roofing professional for thorough material evaluation during roof inspections.
Why Material Evaluation is Crucial
Rigorous inspections of materials such as shingles and metal are essential to identify roofing issues, including loose components, corrosion, or structural issues that could compromise performance.
Beyond assessing visible damage, a comprehensive material evaluation incorporates a sampling process to uncover critical components like moisture levels and aging conditions. Modern technology, such as infrared technology, can accurately assess hidden problems. This is particularly significant when the roof's installation history is uncertain, as undiscovered weaknesses could lead to costly repairs or replacements.
Ensuring your roof meets the building code requirements also helps prevent safety and functionality issues. By prioritizing material evaluation, homeowners and building owners can ensure their roofs remain resilient and functional, extending their lifespan and enhancing overall property value.
Key Steps in Evaluating Roof Materials During Inspection
Roof material evaluation during inspections serves as a fundamental process for homeowners and building owners who seek to assess the condition and suitability of their roofing system. This evaluation identifies existing issues and highlights the benefits of various materials, enabling informed decision-making when repairs or replacements are necessary. By engaging roofing contractors for professional inspections, homeowners can ensure they're choosing the best options for their needs, budget, and long-term durability.
Visual Inspection of Roofing Materials
This process involves assessing various essential components, such as shingles, metal plates, clay, or slate, for obvious signs of damage and wear that can affect their overall lifespan. Inspectors look for common issues like curled edges, cracks, loss of granules, and moss buildup, which can indicate deterioration.
Additionally, they check for signs of leaks and moisture buildup, which can result from inadequate ventilation or proper insulation. By identifying these problems early, homeowners can take proactive measures to extend the life of their roofing system.
Advanced technology, such as infrared scanners and drones, is increasingly being utilized to enhance the accuracy and thoroughness of damage assessment. These tools provide a detailed view of the roof's condition, including hard-to-reach areas, allowing for a comprehensive evaluation that traditional methods might miss.
Assessing Material Durability
Assessing the condition of roofing materials is crucial to maintaining a building's integrity. Various factors, including harsh weather, the age of the materials, and overall material integrity, can significantly impact a roof's performance.
Regular material inspection plays a vital role in identifying potential weaknesses and ensuring that the roofing system remains effective, particularly for complex roofs. Issues like cracks, missing pieces, and visible signs of wear and tear compromise the aesthetic appeal and can lead to future issues if left unaddressed.
By understanding the importance of comprehensive roof inspections and promptly addressing any concerns, homeowners and building owners can protect their investments and ensure the longevity of their roofs, ultimately contributing to safer and more resilient structures.
Common Issues Identified During Material Evaluation
Several common issues can significantly impact a roof's integrity during material inspection evaluation. Loose shingles are frequently found, and if not secured promptly, they can lead to leaks and allow moisture to infiltrate the underlying structure. Signs of corrosion, particularly around metal components, are another critical issue that poses a risk of structural damage.
A careful assessment of wear around roofing equipment, including vents and chimneys, is often overlooked, yet it can create pathways for water intrusion. Inspecting flashings is essential, as deterioration in this area may result in leaks and provide entry points for pests, leading to further complications.
Additionally, staining from rust, moss growth, and water damage can indicate underlying problems that, if neglected, may escalate into more significant issues. These obvious issues and potential repairs should be included in a comprehensive inspection report, highlighting the importance of regular inspections to ensure the longevity and safety of roofing systems.
Solutions and Recommendations Based on Material Evaluation
Evaluating materials during a proper roof inspection is crucial in identifying and addressing issues that could lead to further damage or a compromised roof. After a comprehensive assessment, various solutions and recommendations can be developed based on the roofing materials.
If curling or cracking is evident in asphalt shingles, immediate patching or full shingle replacement is recommended to prevent leaks. Metal roofs, while durable, may show signs of rust or loose panels; applying protective coatings and securing loose areas are effective solutions. For tile roofs with cracked or missing tiles, timely replacement is essential to maintain structural integrity and prevent water infiltration.
By promptly addressing minor issues, homeowners can enhance the longevity of their roofs and avoid expensive repairs in the future. Whether reinforcing, repairing, or replacing roofing materials, timely inspections and actions lead to more sustainable roofing solutions.

THE JOHNSON COLLECTION - A Private Collection for Public Good
thejohnsoncollection.org/the-collection/
Sharing the art it stewards with communities across the country is The Johnson Collection’s essential purpose and propels our daily work. Much more than a physical place, TJC seeks to be a presence in American art, prioritizing access over location. Since 2013, the collection’s touring exhibitions have been loaned twenty-five times, placed without fee in partner museums with a combined annual attendance of over 1.2 million visitors. In its showcase of over 1,000 objects, TJC’s website functions as a digital museum, available anywhere and anytime.
What began as an interest in paintings by Carolina artists in 2002 has grown to encompass over 1,400 objects with provenances that span the centuries and chronicle the cultural evolution of the American South.
Today, The Johnson Collection counts iconic masterworks among its holdings, as well as representative pieces by an astonishing depth and breadth of artists, native and visiting, whose lives and legacies form the foundation of Southern art history. From William D. Washington’s The Burial of Latané to Malvin Gray Johnson’s Roll Jordan Roll, the collection embraces the region’s rich history and confronts its complexities, past and present.
.The contributions of women artists, ranging from Helen Turner—only the fourth woman elected to full membership in the National Academy of Design in 1921—to Alma Thomas—the first African American woman to have a solo exhibition at a major national museum in 1972—are accorded overdue attention, most notably in TJC's most recent publication and companion exhibition, Central to Their Lives: Southern Women Artists in the Johnson Collection. Landmark works by American artists of African descent such as Benny Andrews, Romare Bearden, Elizabeth Catlett, Aaron Douglas, William H. Johnson, Leo Twiggs, and Hale Woodruff pay homage to their makers' barrier-defying accomplishments. Modern paintings, prints, collages, and sculpture created by internationally renowned artists associated with the experimental arts enclave of Black Mountain College, including Josef Albers, Ruth Asawa, Ilya Bolotowsky, Elaine de Kooning, Robert Motherwell, Kenneth Noland, and Robert Rauschenberg highlight the North Carolina school's geographic proximity to the collection's home.
Hailed by The Magazine Antiques as having staged a "quiet art historical revolution" and expanding "the meaning of regional," The Johnson Collection heralds the pivotal role that art of the South plays in the national narrative. To that end, the collection's ambitious publication and exhibition strategies extend far beyond a single city's limit or a territorial divide.
Since 2012, TJC has produced four significant scholarly books—thoroughly researched and beautifully illustrated investigations of Southern art time periods, artists, and themes: Romantic Spirits: Nineteenth Century Paintings of the South (2012); From New York to Nebo: The Artistic Journey of Eugene Thomason (2014); Scenic Impressions: Southern Interpretations from the Johnson Collection (2015); and Central to Their Lives: Southern Women Artists in the Johnson Collection (2018). These volumes are accompanied by traveling exhibitions that have been loaned without fee to partner museums with a combined annual attendance of over 1.7 million visitors.
Smaller curated presentations rotate at the collection's hometown exhibition space, TJC Gallery. Individual objects are regularly made available for critical exhibitions such as La Biennale di Venezia, Afro-Atlantic Histories, Outliers and American Vanguard Art, Leap Before You Look: Black Mountain College, 1933-1957, Alma W. Thomas: Everything is Beautiful, Riffs and Relations: African American Artists and the European Modernist Tradition, and Bold, Cautious, True: Walt Whitman and American Art of the Civil War Era and featured in important publications and catalogues, including The New Encyclopedia of Southern Culture: Art & Architecture, and The Civil War and American Art.
In 2016, the state of South Carolina honored The Johnson Collection with the Governor’s Award for the Arts, its highest arts distinction. The commendation paid tribute to the Johnson family's enduring contributions: "Equally dedicated to arts advancement and arts accessibility, the Johnsons generously share their vision, energy, passion and resources to benefit the arts in South Carolina."
"Who can say what ignites a passion? Was it those three red roses frozen in blue? An awakened connection to one's geographical roots? Perhaps the familiarity of the road to Nebo? The nucleus of what was to become our collection was formed by such seemingly unrelated catalysts. Looking back, it was always the sense of place that drew George and me to beautiful pictures—pictures that capture not only the glorious landscape of the South, but that also enliven its unique culture and dynamic history." ~Susu Johnson, Chief Executive Officer
Every Mind Matters: The Many Dimensions of Mental Illness
The Hill brings together lawmakers, mental health experts, and advocates to discuss these questions and more and explore why prioritizing mental health is intrinsically linked to good health overall.
The United States is facing an unprecedented mental health crisis as two in five American adults reported experiencing symptoms of anxiety and depression in 2021. Fortunately, the country has witnessed a positive sea change in recognizing the importance of mental health and self-care in recent years, but significant work still remains to create a system that recognizes the nuances and needs of those with mental illness.
Schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disease, and post-traumatic stress disorder are just some of the many conditions affecting the 1 in 20 Americans experiencing serious mental illness today. The generalization of these disorders extends beyond everyday vernacular as one-size-fits-all policies, drugs and treatments continue to fail patients. Even when services are available, barriers like cost, cultural bias, and inconvenience often prevent people from accessing the care they need.
How can we break down the stigma associated with mental illness? How can we build a comprehensive care system to support all individuals affected by it?

"If you’re looking for a vibe, this is where you’ll find it. Spartanburg is one of South Carolina’s most established, respected, progressive, and diverse art communities with everything from the fine arts—ballet, symphonies, and opera—to the cutting edge—street performers, graffiti, and dance mobs.
Experience the Cultural District
Downtown Spartanburg has even been designated as a cultural district by the South Carolina Arts Commission. Within the cultural district, you can walk to and enjoy world-class art galleries, studios, music venues, breweries, culinary arts, local literature publishers, coffee shops, libraries, museums, and more. Regardless of when you visit, you’re likely to encounter live music in the streets, featuring jazz, rock ‘n’ roll, or beach music.
Come experience how we put the art in SpARTanburg."

Since 2013, the collection’s touring exhibitions have been loaned twenty-five times, placed without fee in partner museums with a combined annual attendance of over 1.2 million visitors. In its showcase of over 1,000 objects, TJC’s website functions as a digital museum, available anywhere and anytime.
What began as an interest in paintings by Carolina artists in 2002 has grown to encompass over 1,400 objects with provenances that span the centuries and chronicle the cultural evolution of the American South.
Today, The Johnson Collection counts iconic masterworks among its holdings, as well as representative pieces by an astonishing depth and breadth of artists, native and visiting, whose lives and legacies form the foundation of Southern art history. From William D. Washington’s The Burial of Latané to Malvin Gray Johnson’s Roll Jordan Roll, the collection embraces the region’s rich history and confronts its complexities, past and present.
.The contributions of women artists, ranging from Helen Turner—only the fourth woman elected to full membership in the National Academy of Design in 1921—to Alma Thomas—the first African American woman to have a solo exhibition at a major national museum in 1972—are accorded overdue attention, most notably in TJC's most recent publication and companion exhibition, Central to Their Lives: Southern Women Artists in the Johnson Collection. Landmark works by American artists of African descent such as Benny Andrews, Romare Bearden, Elizabeth Catlett, Aaron Douglas, William H. Johnson, Leo Twiggs, and Hale Woodruff pay homage to their makers' barrier-defying accomplishments. Modern paintings, prints, collages, and sculpture created by internationally renowned artists associated with the experimental arts enclave of Black Mountain College, including Josef Albers, Ruth Asawa, Ilya Bolotowsky, Elaine de Kooning, Robert Motherwell, Kenneth Noland, and Robert Rauschenberg highlight the North Carolina school's geographic proximity to the collection's home.
Hailed by The Magazine Antiques as having staged a "quiet art historical revolution" and expanding "the meaning of regional," The Johnson Collection heralds the pivotal role that art of the South plays in the national narrative. To that end, the collection's ambitious publication and exhibition strategies extend far beyond a single city's limit or a territorial divide.
Since 2012, TJC has produced four significant scholarly books—thoroughly researched and beautifully illustrated investigations of Southern art time periods, artists, and themes: Romantic Spirits: Nineteenth Century Paintings of the South (2012); From New York to Nebo: The Artistic Journey of Eugene Thomason (2014); Scenic Impressions: Southern Interpretations from the Johnson Collection (2015); and Central to Their Lives: Southern Women Artists in the Johnson Collection (2018). These volumes are accompanied by traveling exhibitions that have been loaned without fee to partner museums with a combined annual attendance of over 1.7 million visitors.
Smaller curated presentations rotate at the collection's hometown exhibition space, TJC Gallery. Individual objects are regularly made available for critical exhibitions such as La Biennale di Venezia, Afro-Atlantic Histories, Outliers and American Vanguard Art, Leap Before You Look: Black Mountain College, 1933-1957, Alma W. Thomas: Everything is Beautiful, Riffs and Relations: African American Artists and the European Modernist Tradition, and Bold, Cautious, True: Walt Whitman and American Art of the Civil War Era and featured in important publications and catalogues, including The New Encyclopedia of Southern Culture: Art & Architecture, and The Civil War and American Art.
In 2016, the state of South Carolina honored The Johnson Collection with the Governor’s Award for the Arts, its highest arts distinction. The commendation paid tribute to the Johnson family's enduring contributions: "Equally dedicated to arts advancement and arts accessibility, the Johnsons generously share their vision, energy, passion and resources to benefit the arts in South Carolina."
"Who can say what ignites a passion? Was it those three red roses frozen in blue? An awakened connection to one's geographical roots? Perhaps the familiarity of the road to Nebo? The nucleus of what was to become our collection was formed by such seemingly unrelated catalysts. Looking back, it was always the sense of place that drew George and me to beautiful pictures—pictures that capture not only the glorious landscape of the South, but that also enliven its unique culture and dynamic history." ~Susu Johnson, Chief Executive Officer

Today’s “Flight Path to Wellness: Prioritizing Mental Health in Aviation” panel at Communicating For Safety (CFS) 2024 tackled the critical issue of mental health within the aviation industry. The session was moderated by NATCA Executive Vice President Andrew LeBovidge, who has advocated for improving mental health support for aviation professionals. LeBovidge emphasized the importance of overcoming barriers such as fear, lack of trust, and financial uncertainty that often prevent individuals from seeking the care they need.
The panel included Air Line Pilot Association, Int’l (ALPA) Peer Support and Pilot Assistance Chair Travis Ludwig, AMAS Aviation Medical Advisory Service Dr. Kurt McCartney, Allied Pilots Association (APA) Flight Standard First Officer Evan MacPhee, and FAA Federal Air Surgeon Dr. Susan Northrup. They discussed challenges faced by pilots and air traffic controllers, the importance of peer support, and the role of medical professionals in ensuring the well-being of those working in high-stress aviation environments.
This panel underscored the necessity of prioritizing mental health within the aviation industry, offering #NATCACFS 2024 attendees practical strategies to support their own well-being and that of their colleagues.
