NAMI SMARTS: Meeting Your Policymaker

How can we share our stories effectively to create change for people with mental health conditions? One important next step is meeting with your policymakers. We’re going to go over how to prepare for your meeting effectively and how to use your time efficiently during the meeting so you will be successful. We suggest that you take our NAMI SMARTS Telling Your Story before taking this Training: Meeting Your Policymaker since this training takes elements from telling your story and builds upon it.
