NAMI Education Series is a program designed to better inform those who have or know someone affected by mental illness. How do we do that? By hosting and offering several presentations to our community!

NAMI Education Series are offered 2-3 throughout the year. Typically, they are 90-120 minutes during the evening. We also offer presentations to schools, businesses, and other organizations. If you are interested in a presentation or training for your organization, please visit our request a speaker page. We also offer webinars on various mental health topics.
