“Before I took the course, I felt alone and overwhelmed dealing with my daughter’s mental illness. By taking this course, I have met others who are going through the same things I am and have learned about many resources that I never knew existed.”
Space is limited for the free course, so those interested are asked to register in advance by contacting NAMI representative Doris Hamilton, dorishamilton200@yahoo.com or 913-242-5227.
