For over forty years, NAMI NYS’s Annual Education Conference has been a cornerstone for mental health advocacy, providing a platform for exploring advancements and addressing ongoing challenges in mental health. Our conference is designed to offer comprehensive education, valuable resources, cutting-edge research findings, and diverse treatment options to everyone affected by mental illness. Each year, we honor leading advocates who have significantly contributed to the mental health field.
Our attendees make the NAMI NYS Annual Education Conference truly special. We engage and educate all members of the recovery team—from individuals and families, to first responders and discharge teams. Our goal is to provide critical information to all professionals, peers, parents, and providers involved in the mental health journey, ensuring that everyone has the knowledge and tools they need to support recovery.
This year’s theme, “Empowering Ourselves through Connection, Compassion, Coping, Community and Care,” embodies NAMI NYS’s strategic vision of collective action and innovation. We are committed to removing barriers and creating vital mental health resources that will transform the recovery journey. Our focus on crisis, community, and care aims to build connections and foster communities that support those living with mental illness, their families, and caregivers. Join us as we work towards a world where all people affected by mental illness live healthy, fulfilling lives supported by a community that cares.
