2 Page 2 NAMI Smarts NAMI Abilene will host it s first NAMI Smarts for Advocacy training on Thursday, January 11, 2018 at the Betty Hardwick MHMR Center in Abilene. Byl Boyd will be teaching the class utilizing the skills he learned at his recent training in Round Rock, Texas under the tutelage of Greg Hansch. Advocate! Is still our rallying cry. for a new legislative calendar and a new administration in the nation s capital. There will be much rancor in the United States capitol over expenditures and STAY TUNED!!! Changes coming NAMI will be there! So, from the NAMI Blog, January 27, 2017, by Happy Carlock, New Congress, What Now?, we re Walk for Mental Illness Awareness 2017 SUCCESS!! We made it. NAMI Abilene had the privilege of hosting it s first Walk for Mental Illness Awareness this past October, during Mental Illness Awareness Week, in downtown AbiIene. This Walk will become an annual event for our Affiliate as we continue to grow and eventually host a NAMIWalk celebration. When you walk with NAMI Abilene, you join the movement to make mental illness a stigma-free diagno- Everman Park. Walk reminded, America is in a time of transition. And any major transition whether in politics or in our personal lives is often accompanied by a range of emotions. Just log onto your Facebook or Twitter page and you re likely to be flooded by alarming headlines and heated commentary. NAMI pledges to be in the conversation every step of the way, fighting to make sure that your mental healthcare is protected and keeping you informed of new developments. sis, educate the general public that without mental health you can t have good health, and raise funds for our mission to help individuals and families right here in Abilene. We were fortunate to have about 25 people to join us as we stepped off at Frontier Texas. Participants included volunteers from the NAMI Abilene membership and supporters. Next year, our. kick-off for the Walk will be in June and will take the form of a Benefit Golf Tournament at Maxwell Golf Course. It is our desire that sponsorships from this event will defray costs of the Walk.
3 Volume 1, Issue 5 Fall 2017 Page 3 In Our Own Voice (...and the winner is) KUDO;s to William Byl Boyd, pictured here with a fellow NAMI Smarts for Advocacy teacher, Diane in Austin, on his selection as the 2017 NAMI Texas Volunteer of the Year My journey began in crisis in Moultrie, Georgia following meltdown in my hometown of Birmingham, Alabama. After years of struggling with an alcoholism and crack addiction coupled with an untreated mental health diagnosis of schizo-affective disorder, bipolar type I I was introduced to a new organization in the area called NAMI. The emergency room at the University of Alabama Birmingham Hospital transported me to a treatment facility in Moultrie, Georgia that specialized in treating persons with a dual-diagnosis. For the first time in my life I would be afforded the opportunity to address all my issues and truly seek recovery. My lived experience includes homelessness, physical abuse, dumpster diving and an endless supply of street drugs and generic mouthwash. For two years, I worked to move back into the mainstream of life. My introduction to NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness in Moultrie was a godsend. Because it was a new, young and emerging Affiliate I was able to grow with the organization. I began my journey as a participant in the peer support group. Today, I am a Texas Certified Peer Specialist and founding director of NAMI Abilene. About NAMI Abilene NAMI Abilene is a newly formed Affiliate in Texas. NAMI Abilene offers a variety of education classes and support groups, participates in area mental health events, and advocates for people with mental illness and their family members and friends.

Our service area (Abilene) covers Taylor and Jones counties. All meetings, classes, and support groups are free and are centrally located.

4 NAMI Texas Celebrates Conference 2017 November 2 4, 2017, the city of Austin, Texas hosted the 2017 NAMI Texas State Conference. The theme this year, The Power of Connection. Every year, NAMI Texas hosts a mental health conference in a different part of the state (though Byl keeps asking with a smile, why they seem to be locked into one city?). Thes conferences bring together individuals living with mental illness, family members, professionals, and the general public to highlight the latest updates in the mental health field, exchange information, and celebrate the year s successes. The Conference was held at the Austin Marriott South. On Thursday, January 2nd, at the Awards Celebration, we honored the recipients of the NAMI Texas annual awards.

Plans underway to open satellite office... Coming in January we will be housed at 1228 Grape Street. Abilene, Texas. Site of our 2017 NAMI Mental Health Conference. NAMI Abilene will reach another milestone with the opening of our Office at 1228 Grape Street in Abilene, home of our 2017 Mental Health Conference. Having an office presence affords us an opportunity for advancement in our program offerings and the solicitation of grant funding and individual donations. Now, when someone asks, Where are you located?, we can give them a definitive and verifiable answer and location. Office hours will be posted on our website and marketing materials. We are also seeking Volunteers to assist in a number of areas of our operations as well as soliciting material donations such as office equipment and supplies. We are grateful for the recent donations of office furniture and supplies by the 180 House of Abilene and Oceans Behavioral Health Hospital, Abilene. All training materials as well as resource materials will be store at this site. Special thanks to Bishop Robert A. Nichols and the congregation of Church on the Rock Abilene for their offer of this space and for their continued support. We are exploring the possibility of offering a Connection Recovery Support Group at this facility during the new programming year. Stay Tuned...
