Hi friends,
Not sure if this is a trigger, could you link me to what to be aware of?

I am headed to the Nami conference this weekend. this is a link to the workshops. I want to get to as many as I can, and the ones that would have the most information not only for work, but my family and friends. LEgal, medical, and support issues:

This is the agenda:
http://namipa.nami.org/annualconfere...opic100606.htm

I will have to sit here and write the ones I would like to attend, then figure out which are not conflicting scheduled events, and then a second one if the first workshop is not up to par, the swing over to the next one...with a major headach going on!

There are children behavioral, community, pharmacology, even working on social security when working.

I also want to get to the law enorcement ones, such as "If your child is arrested".

If anyone has input to which are must attends or suggestions,can you post it?
I will be back on Saturday night...I am not staying for a dinner dance, it is going to be tough to leave my daughter here for care.
I am so excited to be there, I just which I could have left my two girls in good hands to attend todays law enforcement symposiam. I amvery active on the law enforcement end for more traiining of first responders, and the court advocasy system.

The Family one and the Elderly one sounds good to me.

Hi Nikkio,
I will try to get to the family ones, and the ask the doctors for sure. I will highlight the elderly one too.

I just wish I could have been there today for Criminal justice symposium. I am suppose to meet with the presenters tomorrow night.
My next one is a Domestic violence conferne, our law just updated.

good luck at the conference...
looks like it is jammed pack full of important issues.
Hope that you get to do everything that you want to do.

I used to be involved in the local "bridges" program here in louisiana...but had to quit doing that at the time due to too much stress.
It was a peer run support group. I wonder if you have anything like that in your state? your local hospital would have the listing of support groups...
might help....
make it a great weekend!
