NAMI Ending the Silence (ETS) is an engaging presentation that helps audiences learn about the warning signs of mental health conditions and what to do if you or a loved one show symptoms. In presentations, a lead presenter shares an informative presentation and a young adult with a mental health condition shares their journey of recovery. Audience members can ask questions and gain understanding of an often misunderstood topic. Through dialogue, we can help grow the movement to end stigma.
The presentation includes: Warning signs Facts and statistics How to talk with your child and how to work with school staff
The goal of NAMI ETS is to create a generation of students who are well-positioned to end the silence and stigma surrounding mental illness.
