NAMI Family & Friends and In Our Own Voice Presentation

National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI)

Warren-Newport Public Library

Join NAMI @ WNPL to learn about personal perspectives of mental health conditions, as leaders with lived experiences talk openly about what it's like to have a mental health condition & how to thrive.

NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) In Our Own Voice presentations change attitudes, assumptions and ideas about people with mental health conditions.

This presentation provides:

An opportunity to hear open and honest perspectives on a highly misunderstood topic
A chance to ask questions, allowing for a deeper understanding of mental health conditions and dispelling of stereotypes or harmful misconceptions
The understanding that people with mental health conditions have lives enriched by hopes, dreams and goals
Information on how to learn more about mental health and get involved with the mental health community

Kick off National Mental Illness Awareness Week (October 1-7) by joining us for this educational, empowering presentation!

Presented in partnership with NAMI Lake County.
