RECORDED AND UPCOMING WEBINARS

NAMI Maryland Webinar Series

NAMI Maryland is developing and disseminate free webinars for a wide range of audiences. During these difficult times, webinars have been critical as a means of education and support for individuals living with mental illness, their family members, and providers who are trying to navigate the dual pandemic.

These webinars are scheduled to occur on a consistent basis and will last no longer than an hour through NAMI Maryland's platform. We will record these webinars for dissemination to all registered attendees and will post the recording on a dedicated page of our website for any individuals who may be unable to attend. As with our previous webinars, we also plan to create a one page resource infographic for easy distribution which will highlight the critical information presented during each webinar.
