Description

Rosalynn Carter has championed mental health since her days as President Jimmy Carter's First Lady -- and even before.
With the announcement that she has been diagnosed with dementia, C-SPAN's podcast "The Weekly" looks back at her advocacy of mental health awareness and mental health programs. But with a unique perspective: we focus on her collaboration with -- and friendship with -- fellow First Lady Betty Ford.
We use clips from single and joint appearances at the National Press Club, Congressional hearings, panel discussions -- and from C-SPAN's own original features series, "First Ladies: Influence & Image." 
The Rosalynn Carter/Betty Ford bond over mental health advocacy ... in the latest episode of C-SPAN's podcast "The Weekly."
