#RestInPeace Rosalynn Carter. For her & her husband #JimmyCarter's humanitarianism, #POTUS Clinton awarded them the Presidential Medal of Freedom: “Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter have done more good things for more people in more places than any other couple on the face of the Earth."

One of Mrs. Carter’s lasting legacies comes from her work—before, during, and after her time as First Lady—as an advocate for mental health. In 1978, she presented President Carter with the commission’s recommendations for sweeping mental health policy and program reforms.
