On March 9, Grant Halliburton Foundation welcomed Zak Williams, mental health advocate, CEO and founder of PYM, and son of the late Robin Williams, to share his story at the 13th annual Beacon of Hope Community Luncheon. The luncheon supports Grant Halliburton Foundation’s work providing education, resources and support for children, teen and young adult mental health in North Texas. Jenny Anchondo, The CW 33 anchor, interviewed Williams in a candid conversation about his famous father’s life and passing, his challenges with mental health and his mental health regimen. Williams’ mission in life is helping people find health for mental illness, and he’s become a student in finding ways to educate people about how to take care of themselves.
