Join us, and our rural neighbor Jeff Winton who is deeply embedded in rural farming (yes there is such a thing as urban farming). Jeff bodes from beautiful Wall Street Dairy in Chautauqua County founder of Rural Minds as he speaks of his lived experiences in rural America.

Join us for this month’s NAMI NYS Lunch & Learn as we explore the important work of Rural Minds and the unique mental health challenges facing rural communities across New York. 🌾💚

Limited access to providers, transportation barriers, and shortages of mental health professionals can make it harder for individuals in rural areas to receive the care and support they need. Rural Minds is helping bridge that gap by providing free mental health resources, conversation tools, and support specifically tailored to farmers, ranchers, and agricultural communities.

Bring your lunch, your questions, and your perspective as we learn more about strengthening mental health support in rural communities and reducing stigma together.
