Victory in Stigma Fighting!

Thanks to the great work of NAMI Burlington County’s fierce advocates! The Mayor and Common Council of the City of Burlington proclaim October 7 through October 13, 2018 as Mental Health Awareness Week, to shine a light on mental illness and fight stigma, provide support, educate the public and advocate for equal care. See the proclamation.
