NAMI Vermont’s annual conference is coming back in-person on November 15, 2023! NAMI Vermont members, speakers, presenters, advocates, peers, family members, and community members will join together for an inspiring day of presentations, workshops, and exhibits. The theme of the NAMI Vermont 2023 Conference is Together for Mental Health.

The last in-person annual conference took place in 2019. We are thrilled to be able to return to an in-person format this year and connect face-to-face. Dr. Xavier Amador will give a keynote address in the morning. He is an internationally-renowned psychologist, author, and speaker. Attendees will have the opportunity to choose from several different workshops and presentations and network with our sponsors and exhibitors. A detailed agenda will be available soon, as well as information about how to register.
