NAMI SARASOTA AND MANATEE

EACH MAY NAMI SARASOTA AND MANATEE COUNTIES JOINS OUR PARTNERS NATIONALLY TO RECOGNIZE MENTAL HEALTH MONTH, raising awareness about mental health. Mental health conditions do not discriminate, and Mental Health Month offers an opportunity to come together and remember the inherent value we each hold—no matter our diagnosis, appearance, socioeconomic status, background, or ability. NAMI Sarasota and Manatee Counties’ offers peer-led mental health support and education programs to individuals and families throughout our community. Over the last year we have increased our signature support groups and education classes to serve more Manatee and Sarasota County residents. We continue to focus on our youth and young adult programs, wellness drop-in support, and family peer navigation services to support families and youth. With your support we continue to offer all programs FREE of charge for participants. Join us during Mental Health Month. We are offering two webinars focused on mental wellness, the first, May 2nd, features local mental health trauma expert Kat Greenberg discussing “Embracing the Fire Within: Transformative Power of Loving Your Anger.” And Dr. Christopher Cortman is returning to offer a new 5-part webinar series on the 10 crucial psychological truths–truths imperative to maintaining mental health and well-being.
