The National Alliance for the Mentally Ill had their annual walk yesterday, October 2, at Credit Island Park in Davenport. Here is our little team from the Church of Peace.
While we got some donations, the main purpose of fielding a team is to help reduce stigma and begin to treat mental illness, more and more, like other illnesses. Certainly, several members of our church have had bouts with mental illness.
So looking in Sunday's QC Times I noted that our little team made it front and center in their coverage of the NAMI Walk.
