In Our Own Voice
NAMI In Our Own Voice presentations change attitudes, assumptions and ideas about people with mental health conditions.
These free, 40-, 60- or 90-minute presentations provide a personal perspective of mental health conditions, as leaders talk openly about what it's like to have a mental health condition, including:
-
An opportunity to hear open and honest perspectives on a highly misunderstood topic
-
A chance to ask leaders questions, allowing for a deeper understanding of mental health conditions and dispelling of stereotypes and 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
