Join the Stepping Up partners for a webinar about engaging people who have mental illnesses and their families in your county’s Stepping Up planning efforts. While counties across the country have committed to creating data-driven, systems-level plans to reduce the number of people who have mental illnesses in their jails, engaging these individuals can help your county garner further support for its planning efforts, receive advice on key strategies, and ensure that their stories are heard.

During this webinar, an expert from the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) and county representatives will describe strategies for meaningfully including people who have mental illnesses and their families in your Stepping Up efforts.
