About this event

This training is brought to you in collaboration with NAMI Western Nevada.

Description

NAMI Smarts for Advocacy is a skill-building training that helps people turn their passion and lived experience into skillful grassroots advocacy. While the training uses mental health examples, the skills are useful across the health spectrum. The workshop engages participants in hands-on learning to build and strengthen skills to engage in issue advocacy. Whether someone is new to advocacy or has years of experience, people will leave the workshop with messages, step-by-step tools and the practice they need to feel ready to make a difference.

NAMI Smarts for Advocacy begins with its core skill: Telling Your Story. This module guides participants through writing and delivering a compelling version of their story that will serve as the starting point for their issue advocacy.
