NAMI Basics is a free, six-session program designed for parents and other family caregivers of children and adolescents experiencing mental health challenges. NAMI North Texas is now offering this class for professionals to help them better understand the impact that mental health conditions have on the youth as well as the family. The information provided will equip professionals working with youth and their families with unique insights that can enable them to work more collaboratively with families as part of the treatment team, as well as help them understand the value of referring their clients to NAMI Basics. "What is the difference between a “regular” NAMI Basics class and a NAMI Basics for Professionals class provided to professionals?" There is no difference in content. All 6 sessions are taught in their entirety, by trained NAMI Basics teachers. The following modifications are made when the audience is professional caregivers: During the discussion portions of the classes, Basics teachers share what parents tell us when we pose the discussion topics. For example: Discussion question: “How did it feel for you when you finally had a diagnosis for your child’s symptoms?” Basics teacher response: “For me it was a relief. Other parents who have taken this course tell us that it is helpful to finally have a name for what is going on; to know that there actually is something causing the behavior and that it can be treated.” During story sharing, participants are asked to share a story about their experiences with a child that they have worked with and how it impacted them. "Can’t I just take a regular NAMI Basics class with parents?" We never allow anyone into our peer education programs (Basics, Family-to-Family, Peer-to-Peer, or Homefront) who does not have the lived experience. This is to insure a safe, judgment-free environment for participants to be open and honest about their emotional reactions to the challenges of mental health conditions. "Why do we offer a 6 session class to busy professionals?" When NAMI Basics classes are advertised in community, routinely there are requests from teachers, counselors, youth court staff, child protective services staff and other professionals to attend so that they can learn more about the families they are working with. Because these requests are so common, approval was given to pilot the course, as it is written, with professionals in NAMI New York City Metro several years ago. It was such a success that they offer this option several times a year. It has resulted in a better equipped group of professional caregivers, and has also increased the number of families referred by these professionals to the NAMI Basics classes for parents. Questions?

Family Members & Caregivers Family-to-Family NAMI Family-to-Family is a free, 8-week educational program for family members of adults living with a mental health condition: parents, siblings, spouses, adult children, partners, and significant others. This course intends to offer insight and support into your loved one's condition while helping you understand how to better take care of yourself. Family-to-Family provides information on diagnoses, their biological aspects, and possibilities for living in recovery and details various treatment strategies available. While you learn how to best advocate for, communicate with, and relate to your loved one, you will also be surrounded by support from other individuals on the same journey. You will also learn how to cope with worry, stress, and emotional overload throughout the course through confidential, empathetic conversations. Family-to-Family is taught by trained facilitators who know what it is like to have a loved one with a mental health condition. Everyone is a valued participant, and we welcome you to join and share. Class Schedule Family Support Group NAMI Family Support Group is a free, 90-minute monthly support group for family members, caregivers, and loved ones of individuals with a mental health condition. Facilitated by peers who have experience caring for loved ones living with a mental health condition, these trained individuals understand your struggles and offer compassionate support. Family Support Groups are structured in a casual, relaxed environment without an educational format, where everything you share is kept completely confidential. Members gain hope, insight, support, and community through conversations with peers who are in a similar position. You will have the opportunity to grow from other’s experiences as you learn from and support one another. You never have to share more than you want to, and there is no need to register; just come when you need someone to talk to. Family Support Groups are open to all adults whose loved ones are living with a mental health condition, regardless of diagnosis. We welcome drop-ins and encourage you to share your thoughts at any time. Group Schedule Family & Friends Seminar NAMI Family & Friends is a free, 4-hour seminar that informs and supports family members, partners, friends and significant others who have loved ones with a mental health condition. Participants learn about diagnoses, treatment, recovery, communication strategies, crisis preparation and NAMI resources. Seminar leaders are also family members and know what it is like to have a loved one with a mental health condition. Class Schedule "This was a life changing class for me. I am so grateful for the openness, authenticity, and care the Miller's provided us. Even when the topics clearly got emotionally tough for our group and we weren't able to share as much to the discussion topic, the Miller's were very encouraging and comforting, sometimes offering their own personal experiences to help bridge any gaps. It was uplifting for me to know that I am not alone and others can relate. The Miller's teaching this class was such a blessing."

ESTADISTICAS SOBRE LA SALUD MENTAL DE LA COMUNIDAD LATINA Sabia Usted… • Los índices de enfermedades mentales en la comunidad latina son bastante similares a los índices de la raza blanca. • Los latinos son considerados un grupo de alto riesgo para la depresión, la ansiedad, y el abuso de sustancias. • Deborah Duran estableció la existencia de correlación entre la aculturación y la depresión (Duran, 1995). • Las mujeres y los latinos tienen más tendencia a experimentar un episodio de depresión clínica. • El predominio de la depresión es más alto en las mujeres latinas (el 46%) que en los hombres latinos (19,6%). • El Common Wealth Fund Survey reveló que las muchachas latinas y las de descendencia asiática entre-vistadas exhibieron más síntomas depresivos que las muchachas de descendencia africana o de raza blanca. • En 1997, entre las estudiantes de escuela secundaria, el índice de suicidio entre las muchachas latinas (14,9%) fue 1.5 veces más alto que el de las muchachas de descendencia africana (9,0%) y del de las muchachas de raza blanca (10.3%). • De estas muchachas, casi una de cada tres estudiantes latinas (30,3%) había considerado seriamente el suicidio. • Los Centros de Control y Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC), realizaron un estudio sobre el riesgo de la juventud, y encontraron que un 10,7 por ciento de jóvenes latinos han intentado suicidarse, comparados con un 7,3 por ciento de jóvenes de descendencia africana y un 6,3 por ciento de jóvenes blancos. • Hay índices más altos de enfermedades mentales entre residentes latinos que ya viven varios años o que han nacido en los Estados Unidos que entre inmigrantes latinos recientes. • El lugar de nacimiento tiene una correlación significativa con el riesgo subsiguiente de la mayoría de los desórdenes psiquiátricos. • Un estudio encontró, concluyentemente, que vivir en los Estados Unidos a largo plazo aumenta considerablemente la ocurrencia de desórdenes mentales, acompañados de un aumento dramático en los índices de abuso de sustancias. • Una investigación acerca del suicidio encontró que las personas nacidas en México, tienen un menor riesgo de tener ideas suicidas y depresión que aquellos nacidos en los Estados Unidos.

NAMI On Campus College is an exciting time. From being away from home and finding independence to meeting new people and trying new things, every day brings new experiences. There is also a new level of academic responsibility. Classes are harder and there is always a due date on the horizon. Balancing all of the changes that happen in college can be stressful and challenging. Those challenges are even more difficult for the 1 in 5 students who also face a mental health condition. Nearly three-quarters of mental health conditions emerge by age 24, so many college students are facing mental health concerns for the first time, and may not know where to go for support. NAMI knows that some of the best support a student can receive is from peers. When students connect with one another, they can share common experiences and support each other through the transitions. NAMI on Campus helps make those connections happen. NAMI on Campus clubs work to end the stigma that makes it hard for students to talk about mental health and get the help they need. Clubs hold creative meetings, innovative awareness events, and offer signature NAMI programs through partnership with NAMI North Texas. Contact us and let's talk about bringing NAMI to your campus. For additional information and support, please see NAMI's C ollege Guide .

We would like to thank the generous sponsors of our 2023 NAMIWalks North Texas! Your ongoing support of the NAMI mission is helping us expand access to mental health support and education across North Texas. THANK YOU!
