Ending the Silence

About This Program

NAMI Ending the Silence is an evidence-based program. The presentation includes two leaders: one who shares an informative presentation and a young adult with a mental health condition who shares their journey of recovery. This presentation includes educational slides, videos, and discussion. Audience members can ask questions and gain an understanding of an often misunderstood topic. Through dialogue, we can help grow the movement to end stigma.

This free 50-minute presentation is designed for middle and high school students, school staff, and/or adult family members of students.

Joining NAMI Vermont as an Ending the Silence presenter is a paid opportunity!
