Our local mental health association organizes the May Day party, I am a member of this association, it will be good to see other people and, of course, have this party.
Then on Tuesday there will be a May Day parade and then they have an event in one main square, will be nice to take photos as I did in 2017.
I wished there was something like that here.
Idk,my city has a branch of NAMI. They have a local walk-a-thon to raise money for MI.
Strangely, they seem closely co-ordinated with another place called DARS (a state department for disability).
Dont know about others experience with DARs, but the way the local office treated my case I would never want to see one of those caseworkers again. (I think they might show up at some NAMI events.)
Of NAMI itself, it seems decent from the little I know of it. They organized to try to get more mental health funds for my county as well as others. I think they took a bus to speak at the state capitol.
That was a couple of years ago. I dont know if they have other activities. Yours may have more activities to join too, later in spring and summer.
Maybe I should check their web site as I have not seen it in a long while. I dont like to be with people, but I know many with MI would love to go to a function like you will be doing.
My local mental health association organizes all kinds of events such as going to theaters and going to other places, they are quite active in their organizing activities. They send always a list of all events they are organizing. Then there are weekly events and activities.
I just looked at mine’s website. They seem to have invested their efforts in MI education and support groups for patients and families of patients.
That is to say, I dont think their calander is out yet. It is still rainy a bit and a small bit cool out side.
I bet their finishing up inside activities and their website calendar will be out during the first part of May.
Yours sounds a bit more enthused than mine.
I was thinking maybe the walk-a-thon if it sounded like I could. Guess I will have to wait and see.
