Conference Agenda

9AM-5:00PM on Saturday 
Description:
  • Though the communities of Washington are diverse and uniquely distinct, we all face challenges in a world that is constantly evolving. Whether navigating economic shifts, adapting to environmental changes, addressing judicial reforms, or overcoming societal barriers, each community is impacted in our own way. Yet, through resilience, connection, and understanding, we can break down these barriers and build bridges that foster mental well-being for all. This is why we come together at the NAMI Washington Annual Conference: to strengthen one another, to leverage collective learning, and to grow our resilience. By embracing change together, we can create a future where every individual has access to the support and resources they need to thrive.
