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.

Mental Health First Aid teaches a 5-step action plan to offer initial help to people with the signs and symptoms of a mental illness or in a crisis, and connect them with the appropriate professional, peer, social, or self-help care. Anyone can take the 8-hour Mental Health First Aid course — first responders, students, teachers, leaders of faith communities, human resources professionals, and caring citizens. Sometimes, the best first aid is you. Take the course, save a life, strengthen your community.
