This Black History Month, we are proud to spotlight LuAnna Handley, Youth Program Coordinator at NAMI KDK.

In just one year, LuAnna has not only sustained youth programming — she has expanded it. From strengthening school partnerships across three counties to introducing new initiatives like Stop and Chat, she continues to increase access to mental health education and support for young people.

LuAnna has also intentionally created safe spaces for teen support groups within the Black community and collaborates with local partners to grow programs like Storytime with NAMI KDK. Her commitment to uplifting youth voices extends to supporting leaders of NAMI On Campus at IMSA.

Thank you, LuAnna, for your dedication to empowering the next generation. 💙

Happy Black History Month!! ❤️❤️

Two events in two days left a lasting impression on my heart. I felt honored to share some holiday joy with these kiddos, and it's a strong reminder that collective efforts can create a brighter future for everyone. As a member of the Birth-to-Five Family State Council, I encourage you to explore the fantastic progress being made, especially in Region 31, Kane County, where dedicated advocates are fighting for accessible, quality care. By investing in our children, we're not only shaping their futures but also building the foundation for a more compassionate world for generations to come.
