The Compass

The New Directions' Compass, now in its 17th year, is a trienniel mental health publication (circ. 5,000) printed and mailed through an extremely generous donation from Janssen Pharmaceutica LP in Titusville, New Jersey. Copies are circulated to individuals and agencies interested in learning about the life of the mind. Convenient drop-off points make it easy for you to pick up a copy. See below.

The White Pages of the Compass consist of stories on mental health. The Purple Pages - The KaleidOscope - is our Literary and Art section. The Gold Pages are a listing of mental health resources in the greater Philadelphia area.

We invite readers to submit your stories, poems and ideas to Compass123@comcast.net
