WACPP is made possible in part by a grant from the Landis Endowment of the Wisconsin Medical Society Foundation.
The Landis Endowment was created with the Wisconsin Medical Society Foundation by Mrs. Mary Landis as a tribute to her husband, Charles W. Landis, MD, a psychiatrist and one of the state's most influential physicians on issues of mental health and mental illness, who died in 1986.
Dedicated to professional and public education programs relating to psychiatry and mental health, the endowment supports lectures and programs that relect Dr. Landis' perspective that life has many faces. |
