A big thank you to NAMI Tennessee and Katrina Gay for welcoming NAMI New York State Executive Director Nathan McLaughlin to speak at their conference today!

Nathan was grateful for the opportunity to share some of what NAMI NYS has learned about effective board and steering committee leadership, while also learning from NAMI leaders doing this work in communities across Tennessee.

One of the strengths of the NAMI movement is the opportunity to learn from one another across state lines. Thank you to NAMI Tennessee for the warm welcome, thoughtful conversations, and the opportunity to be part of this year’s conference!
