Hi Friends,
Today is Giving Tuesday, and individuals and families in our community are counting on the support that NAMI Brown County provides every single day.

In Family Support Group, one parent recently shared that their adult child had been struggling deeply, and they felt like they were carrying the weight of the world alone. Week after week, they came to group unsure what to expect—until they realized they were surrounded by people who understood.
They said, “For the first time, I didn’t feel like I was failing. I felt supported.”
That sense of hope helped them find their footing again and strengthened their connection with their loved one.

In Peer Support Group, one participant shared that they had been isolating for months, convinced no one would understand what they were going through. After attending a few sessions, they quietly said, “I finally have a place where I can just be myself.”
That safe space became a turning point—reminding them that recovery is possible and that they never have to walk it alone.

Because of supporters like you, NAMI Brown County continues to offer free support groups, classes, school presentations, community education, and crisis intervention partnerships—all at no cost to the people who rely on them.

Your support makes moments like these possible.
Give Today to Support Mental Health in Brown County.

A gift of $30 helps keep our programs free so individuals and families can access the understanding, resources, and connection they need.
Thank you for standing with our community on this Giving Tuesday and reminding people that no one has to face mental health challenges alone.

With gratitude,
NAMI Brown County
