Description of Regular Meetings/Activities
Roughly every other Tuesday at 7pm, we will have a general meeting for all members of NAMI on Campus where we will either a) have a guest speaker present on a topic related to mental health or b) have a fun activity/time for socializing.
Activities throughout the semester include movies, speakers, and other events related to mental health awareness.
Each month we will also have a different movie or activity which will highlight a mental health issue or topic. Speakers and activities will provide members with insight on a variety of mental health disorders. |
