RE: AMADOR REPRESENTED AT INTERNATIONAL ANTI-STIGMA CONFERENCE

CONTACT: Kelly Trottier, NAMI Amador 223-1485, X266

The 7^th International Each Mind Matters Conference, held recently in San Francisco, featured a panel from Amador County, chaired by Christa Thompson, Mental Health Services Act Program Manager and Community Services Manager at Amador Behavioral Health Department. 

A first for Amador County, the theme of the panel “Breaking the Silence: How a Small Rural County Got Talking” reflected the theme “Together Against Stigma”, with leaders from First 5, NAMI Amador and Mental Health America collaborating in telling the story of history-making large public meetings in 2013-14 where mental illness and mental health services were discussed by citizens and policy makers, along with ideas for reducing the social stigma of mental illness. 

At the Tuesday, February 24^th NAMI Amador meeting, Ms. Thompson will talk about the panel, recounting the impact of members of the faith community, social service agencies, law enforcement, mental health advocacy groups including professionals, families and consumers sitting together and for the first time discussing mental health/illness in Amador County. 

The presentation is 5:30 – 6:15 in the Meadow Room of Sutter Amador Hospital Outpatient Bldg. and will be preceded by a brief business meeting.  Snacks will be available, courtesy of NAMI Amador.
