About this Event
***Please note the Georgia State Capitol requires a photo ID for entry. Also, there is a cost for parking or you can take the MARTA to the Georgia State Station. Food options in the Capitol are limited so we recommend bringing a lunch. There are food options within one block of the Capitol.***
There are many options for you to participate in a Mental Health Monday! For example:
(1) Make an appointment to meet with your Representative and Senator. [email protected] will send you a link to do this.
(2) Sit/stand on steps of the south wing, main stairway to get maximum exposure. We will have signs that say Together for Mental Health. However, homemade signs are welcomed & encouraged. Please be appropriate.
(3) Record your recovery story at the Capitol, which is a great background for you and your story. Share on Social Media and use #Vote4MentalHealth.
(4) Take lots of pictures and share them on Social Media. Tag your legislators. #Vote4MentalHealth
(5) Work with the NAMI Georgia Advocacy Team and email [email protected] to see what other opportunities are available!
Participation in any of the above activities is optional, but all are encouraged!
