The Psychology Times 2016 COMMUNITY AWARD ALTRUISM Beth and Dr. Raphael Salcedo and Dr. Mark Crosby
We continue to be amazed by the determination and self-sacrifice of the Salcedos, and the effort they pour into saving the lives and the psyches of the most abused children of our time, the sex-trafficked girls who find safety and healing at the Free Indeed Home. This year we reported on the hassles the Salcedos endured and overcame when red tape and indifference almost shut down the Home. These two are true heroes and continue to deserve all we can do for them.
We also name Dr. Mark Crosby this year for his leadership and selflessness in the Watson community, ground zero for the Flood of 2016. He dedicated himself to seeing the community through the stages of the catastrophe and is far from the end of that service. Our hats go off to Dr. Crosby this year also.
