💼 What does mental health advocacy look like in action? It looks like communities showing up for one another.

In Episode 101 of NAMI's Hope Starts With Us podcast, host Daniel H. Gillison, Jr. sits down with Mary Sorensen (Director of Field Resource Development) to explore the expanding footprint of NAMIWalks across more than 200 communities.

They dive deep into:

How grass-roots community events fund essential, free local mental health programs.
The powerful sociology of sharing personal stories publicly to dismantle stigma.
Actionable ways you, your workplace, or your family can step up and get involved.

We are bigger, prouder, and more impactful when we move forward together behind a common cause.

👉 Read the breakdown and stream the full conversation on the NAMI Podcast Hub.

This discussion about NAMIWalks highlights the importance of community mental health events and the power of coming together with neighbors.

💙 June is Men's Mental Health Month 💙

Mental health challenges don't discriminate, yet many men face barriers to seeking support due to stigma, societal expectations, or the belief that they need to "tough it out" alone.

This month, NAMI Clark, Greene & Madison Counties encourages men to prioritize their mental health, check in with one another, and know that asking for help is a sign of strength—not weakness.

Every conversation matters. Every story matters. Every life matters.

If you or someone you know is struggling, support is available. You don't have to face mental health challenges alone.
