How to Start the Conversation – Building Your Toolkit

In this week’s episode of NAMI Maine Talks, join Delaney and Ambrose to talk about the importance of talking about mental health. It can be hard to start a conversation about mental health. This week’s discussion is focused on how to open up conversations around mental health. What is the best way to ask a friend if they’re struggling? How do you advocate for your own mental health? We can help you step into action!   Hosts:  Ambrose Ward, Marketing and Media Specialist  Delaney Ireland, Programs Coordinator   Links: NAMI Maine’s STEP into Action Program: https://namimaine.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/RackCard_StepIntoAction_FINAL.pdf  Check out NAMI Maine’s Youth Resources: https://namimaine.org/youth-ed-resources/  How to talk about mental health from NAMI DC: https://www.namidc.org/why-is-it-so-hard-to-talk-about-mental-health/   Hashtags: #stigmaFREE, #MentalHealthMattersToME, #ItTakesAllOfUs, #HOPE, #WellBeing, #Resources, #StrongerTogether #ReachOut, #Maine, #NAMI
