📣 We're so excited to announce our keynote presenters for this year's Annual Conference!

Kelly Crosbie is the Director of the NC DHHS Division of Mental Health, Developmental Disabilities, and Substance Use Services. Her yearly update on the state of mental health in NC has become a true highlight of the conference.

Kerwin Pittman turned his experiences with incarceration into a triumphant story of giving back, becoming the first formerly incarcerated person in the US to purchase a prison, which he is using to create a reentry and workforce development campus. His story of resilience and advocacy should not be missed.

Don't miss either of these dynamic speakers! Register for the conference here: https://whova.com/web/T2YIAD6OPvI5AKSmXJghhk1aNHc1qlkuBeCRO4SimtI%3D/

On this World Mental Health Day, we recognize that people are more than their mental health diagnosis. Lived experience of mental illness may inform their lives, but it does not define them. People living with mental health conditions are devoted family members, industrious workers, passionate hobbyists, practitioners of faith traditions, and loving friends. Their complex stories of triumph and recovery inform the work that we do every day.

At NAMI, we believe in the power of science informed by real lived experience.

That's why our programs are evidence-based and adhere to a structured model. We believe in continuing with what works. Our programs help real people find real hope and recovery, and we have the data to back that up. By combining scientific process with lived experience, we've created programs that have the power to make a lasting difference in the lives of individuals and families living with mental illness.

If you or a loved one is looking to take the next step in a mental health journey, find a NAMI program near you on our website: https://naminc.org/support-and-education/mental-health-education/

Today is National Depression Screening Day. If you think you may be experiencing symptoms of depression, now is the perfect time to contact your health care provider and find out more.

Many primary care providers now do assessments of depression symptoms as a part of routine care. You do not have to be in crisis to be worthy of help. 💚

Learn about the symptoms of depression and determine if a screening is right for you. https://www.nami.org/types-of-conditions/depression/

📣 Don't forget to register for our next NAMI at Noon - Oct. 13 at 12pm!

OCD is a highly misunderstood mental health condition that comes with lasting societal assumptions and misconceptions. The various ways that popular culture portrays OCD and those that live with it can vary from mildly inaccurate to stigmatizing and problematic.

Join us for an enlightening conversation as we discuss what OCD is and is not, its subtypes and variation in presentation, and how popular portrayals of the disorder either combat or perpetuate damaging stereotypes.
