Mental Illness Awareness Week: October 5-11, 2008

Designated by the U.S. Congress in 1990, Mental Illness Awareness Week, MIAW, is NAMI’s premiere public education event. MIAW is celebrated in communities across the country during the first full week of October each year. This year, MIAW takes place October 5 – 11, 2008.

In accordance with the celebration of Mental Illness Awareness Week, NAMI Indianapolis will be hosting our Music for the Mind event on October 6 at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Indianapolis. Come enjoy an evening of the sounds of Cole Porter, a live auction and dinner. Individual tickets are $85.00.

Your attendance and generosity will help NAMI Indianapolis continue to provide quality education courses, support groups and advocacy to hundreds of people affected by serious mental illness.
