Each year, the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) leads Mental Illness Awareness Week on the first week of October. This annual observation seeks to challenge stigma and misunderstanding by showing that mental illness affects everyone directly or indirectly through family, friends or coworkers. Use this week to talk about how mental illness intersects with poverty and criminal justice. Discuss the need for government support of individuals and families dealing with mental illness. Cite the values of community and safety.
