It's the lived experience that I have and the journey that I have had with my daughter for The Last Years.
How does community play a role in mental health? Babu Mathew, President of NAMI Colorado, dives into this question on 'Beyond the Bars'. Originally from India, Babu's life took a significant turn in 2010 when his daughter was diagnosed with anxiety and depression. This personal journey led him to find solace and purpose in the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). He shares how NAMI's peer and family support programs have been a lifeline for many, including his own family.
Babu also touches on the stigma surrounding mental health and how it hinders treatment. He believes faith leaders can be pivotal in mental health advocacy, bridging gaps within communities. With his rich background in sales and marketing and years of involvement in various support groups, Babu offers a unique perspective on holistic wellness. If you're curious about how community connections can foster mental health recovery and want to hear an inspiring story of resilience, this episode is a must-listen.
