Ending the Silence
a presentation by NAMI
(National Alliance of Mental Illness)
Ending the Silence is designed for children and parents/mentors of children in middle or high school that includes warning signs, facts and statistics and how to get help for themselves or someone they love. Research has shown that NAMI Ending the Silence for Students is effective in changing middle and high school students’ knowledge and attitudes toward mental health conditions and toward seeking help. It teaches adults how to work and talk with children and families of someone suffering with mental health.
Join us on Wednesday, May 8 at 5:30PM to learn about how we can End the Silence together.
This event is open to Bigs, Littles, and parents/guardians of children ages 12 and older.
Register by May 3 to let us know if we can count you in!
I AM…
We understand that children have needs of all kinds…behavioral, mental, emotional, or physical. Some just want someone to look up to or to guide them. Inquire today to help your child find and reach their own potential!
…A PARENT OR GUARDIAN
…A CARING ADULT
Children have many adults in their lives who see a variety of sides to them, other than the adults living in the child’s home. We are here to listen to your requests, thoughts, or concerns, to determine if our program is the right fit for them. Inquire today about how to help empower a potential Little.
…INTERESTED IN VOLUNTEERING
There are many people in the world looking to make a big difference in the world. How about making a difference, by becoming a Big. Volunteer some of your time each month to give back to our youth in role modeling how to ignite that desire to be the best versions of ones self. Show them how to set goals and know that anything can be achievable.
