June 9: Exciting New Sub-Community for National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI)

Hello Wonderful Community!!

Many members of the 7 Cups community are also part of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). NAMI is the nations largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to building better lives for the millions of Americans affected by mental illness (you can learn more about NAMI here). We are excited to announce a collaborative partnership with NAMI for the purpose of sharing resources, support and community. For those of you who are already connected to your local NAMI chapters and community, get excited, because you will now be able to join NAMI on 7 Cups. For those of you who are not familiar with NAMI, you can join in too!

Listeners, you can now take the NAMI listener training guide. Check it out here! The guide will teach you more about NAMI, mental health conditions and peer listener best practices. We encourage all listeners to give it a try.

For members and listeners, you are invited to check out the newly formed NAMI Sub-community! Please join in! Over the next few weeks, we will be adding more volunteers in to help support this community space. This is the jumping off point, so please dive in, share ideas and help us welcome the NAMI community to 7 Cups!!
