Based on continuing interest and need, NAMI Fox Valley has once again extended the timeline of our weekly peer support group for adults navigating the emotional impact of the July tornado. Group meetings are now scheduled through the end of October.

This is an opportunity for those affected by the storm to come together, share experiences, connect with others who understand, and find support.

There is no charge to attend this group and no registration is required. Simply join us at the Elisha D. Smith Public Library in Menasha at 6:00 PM on any Wednesday evening through the end of October.

NAMIWalks Fox Valley Team Spotlight: Team Faith, Hope & Love 💙
We’re honored to recognize Team Faith, Hope & Love, led by members of First Congregational United Church of Christ in Appleton, for their many years of walking with NAMIWalks Fox Valley!

Their support of mental health extends far beyond NAMIWalks. First Congregational United Church of Christ has partnered with NAMI Fox Valley for outreach events, invited mental health speakers to connect with their congregation, and helped create opportunities for open conversations about mental health and wellness.

They also host our faith-based family support group, providing a welcoming space for families and loved ones to connect, learn and support one another.

Through Team Faith, Hope & Love and the church’s broader partnership with NAMI Fox Valley, they continue to help make mental health conversations more visible, reduce stigma and connect people with support and resources.

Join us tonight (Wednesday, September 16) at the Elisha D. Smith Public Library in Menasha for our peer support group for those navigating the emotional impact of the tornado and its aftermath. Connect with others who understand, share experiences, and find support. 💚

Based on continuing interest and need, NAMI Fox Valley has extended our weekly peer support group for adults navigating the emotional impact of the recent tornado and its aftermath. Group meetings are now scheduled through September 23.

After a disaster, it can be easy to let the emotional impact of the trauma take a back seat as one navigates immediate needs. At the same time, taking care of one's mental health in a time of crisis is critically important.

This is an opportunity for those affected by the storm to come together, share experiences, connect with others who understand, and find support.

There is no charge to attend this group and no registration is required. Simply come join us at the Elisha D. Smith Public Library in Menasha on any of the following dates and times in September:

🔹Wednesday, September 2, 6:00-7:30 PM
🔹Wednesday, September 9, 6:00-7:30 PM
🔹Wednesday, September 16, 6:00-7:30 PM
🔹Wednesday, September 23, 6:00-7:30 PM
