SO excited for this collab with NAMI Sauk Area! Beginning Feb 27th, they are hosting a support group for parents/caregivers of children with mental health conditions or neurodivergence once a month right down the hall from my Neurodivergent Kids Group Ages 8-12yrs Winter/Spring 2025! Families are welcome to drop kiddos off for some peer interaction and support, then have meaningful fellowship with parents who are navigating similar experiences. So glad that Rooted Wellness Center houses so many wonderful resources!

Calling Illinois elementary school educators! NAMI Illinois wants to hear from YOU!
NAMI Illinois is collaborating with several of our affiliates to design a new mental health program for elementary school students in grades three-five. To ensure that our curriculum effectively meets the needs of students and schools, we have developed a survey aimed at elementary school educators, school mental health professionals, and administrators. This survey, which can be found at tinyurl.com/NAMIILElementaryEdSurvey, focuses on understanding the mental health needs of elementary students.
NAMI programming is free to the community, including evidence-based Ending the Silence presentations for middle and high school students, families, and school staff. These presentations are regularly offered in over 40 counties in Illinois and also reach hundreds of thousands of students nationwide each year. NAMI Illinois is excited to use the survey results to help develop a program that meets the needs of even younger students throughout the state.
As a token of our appreciation, we will have a drawing for two baskets of educator supplies worth $200 each for survey respondents who choose to participate. Thank you for your support!
