This Wednesday Pat Mahoney, NAMI President and Coleen Thayer, NAMI Executive Director will be in the studio to tell us about the work of NAMI – the National Alliance on Mental Illness in Sarasota. Since 1984 NAMI has been working in Sarasota County to improve the lives of individuals with mental illness, as well as the lives of their families and caregivers, through support, education, awareness, and advocacy.
NAMI has a comprehensive Mental Health Resource List and a Family Guide on Mental Illness on their site.
We’ll also be starting our spring membership drive and talking about how starting at noon on May 1 for twenty-four hours you can double your contribution of twenty-five to one hundred dollars to help WSLR grow!!
