In Our Own Voice: Two trained In Our Own Voice speakers share compelling and personal testimonies of living with and overcoming the challenges posed by mental illness. Audience participation and discussion are encouraged, and a brief video with a variety of stories accompanies the presentation. By broadening people's knowledge of mental illness, we replace mis-understanding, fear, and judgement with insight, awareness, and acceptance. The In Our Own Voice presentation can be adapted to meet the special needs of the audience upon request. To schedule a presentation please contact Sharon Lyons at 314.962.4670 or sharon@namistl.org.
