NAMI LogoNAMI presents: In Our Own Voice (IOOV)

IOOV a powerful presentation that aims to change attitudes, assumptions, and stereotypes about people living with mental health conditions. Two trained presenters with lived experience of a mental health condition talk openly about their experiences and how they have found pathways to hope and healing.  They talk about “What Happened,” “What Helps” and “What Is Next.” Audience members have the opportunity to ask questions, learn more about mental health, and challenge misconceptions.

The presentation is offered free of charge and is appropriate for diverse audiences, including family members, friends, mental health professionals, and people diagnosed with mental health conditions. IOOV presentations are available for businesses, hospitals, high schools, colleges and universities, communities of faith, community organizations, and more.

This program is part of the library's Suicide Prevention Education (STAY) initiative.  It will be presented in person, but you can also join by Zoom.
