NAMI Kentucky: Buffalo Trace Affiliate

NAMI Kentucky: Buffalo Trace Affiliate Join us the 2nd Tuesday at 6:00pm in the Mason County Public Library. We meet the second Tuesday each month at 6:00pm in the Mason County Public Library.

NAMI is the "National Alliance on Mental Illness" and this is the official page of the Buffalo Trace Affiliate servicing the counties of Lewis, Mason, Fleming, Bracken, and Robertson. NAMI Ky. Buffalo Trace Affiliate aligns our goals with that of NAMI Ky. The families and members of NAMI Kentucky are here to help! We offer understanding to anyone concerned about mental illnesses and the treatment of mental illness. Mental illnesses are brain disorders that are biologically based medical problems. Untreated, they can cause severe disturbances in thinking, feeling and relating. This results in substantially diminished capacity for dealing with the ordinary demands of life. Mental illness can affect persons of any age and occur in any family. They are not caused by bad parenting and not evidence of weakness of character. Mission:
Dedicated to improving the quality of life for people with mental illness and their families through support, education and advocacy. Our Goals:
Advocate at the county, state and national levels for non-discriminatory access to quality healthcare, housing, education and employment for people with mental illness. Educate the public about mental illness. Work to eliminate the stigma of mental illness. Advocate for increased funding for research into the causes and treatment of mental illness. Our Vision:
In our envisioned future mental illness will no longer thwart a person’s fulfillment of his or her potential. With early pinpoint diagnoses, interventions and targeted medications and services there is no pervasive disability. Ultimately, we envision a day when prevention or a cure is found.

University of Kentucky faculty and students are working to combat su***de through a simple, yet powerful idea: communication saves lives.

Through a partnership with UK HealthCare, QPR training (Question, Persuade, Refer) is now free for all Kentuckians through a 30-minute online session. On this podcast, a UK student and professor team up to discuss the impact of compassion, awareness and breaking stigma — and how every one of us can be part of a lifesaving safety net.
