Linton, Indiana hosts the Linton Music Festival every year around Labor Day. The tagline for the festival is “Mayberry Meets Woodstock” where thousands gather to enjoy music, the arts, economic development, and tourism. Everyone is welcome which is in sharp contrast to the fact that Linton was once a sundown town that prohibited African Americans from residing there. On those days when everything seems to be bothering you, you may be feeling left out and discriminated against.

More than likely, it’s merely your perception of what’s happening in your life. Having someone to talk to such as a mental health professional in the Linton area can be of great benefit in sorting it all out. Get matched today.
