In Our Own Voice
Visit our Programs Webinar webpage for a list of other signature & homegrown programs being offered online!
We offer IOOV in Spanish – En Nuestra Propia Voz De NAMI. We’d love to schedule one for your audience!
NAMI In Our Own Voice (IOOV) is a powerful presentation that aims to change attitudes, assumptions, and stereotypes about people living with mental health conditions. Two trained presenters with lived experience of a mental health condition talk openly about their experiences and how they have found pathways to hope and healing. They talk about “What Happened,” “What Helps” and “What is Next.” Audience members have the opportunity to ask questions, learn more about mental health, and challenge misconceptions.
The presentation is offered free of charge and is appropriate for diverse audiences, including family members, friends, mental health professionals, and people diagnosed with mental health conditions. IOOV presentations are available for businesses, hospitals, high schools, colleges and universities, communities of faith, community organizations, and more.
We offer this presentation in Spanish if requested.
We are now offering both virtual and in-person In Our Own Voice presentations throughout the state.
We encourage interested parties to contact Jill Zwick BSW, Scheduling Coordinator, 848-257-3053 or [email protected], to discuss scheduling an IOOV presentation.
If you are interested in volunteering to be a presenter, we encourage you to have a look at our “Presenter Candidate Information Handout.”
