WALK YOUR SOCKS OFF
WALK YOUR SOCKS OFF NAMI-Flagstaff is sponsoring a walk event to raise money and promote our NAMI Wellness Project. The following description is taken from our Spring Newsletter: The National Alliance on Mental Illness, Flagstaff, Arizona and the City of Flagstaff Aquaplex are partnering to empower our fellow community members who suffer from severe mental illness. The NAMI Wellness Project is led by Travis Agnew, a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist with the City of Flagstaff Aquaplex. The NAMI Wellness Project will enable this group of community members to become an advocate for themselves, as well as function at a higher level. This unique program of strength training, conditioning, and dietary counseling will help propel these individuals to success by helping them realize their own unique personal goals and improvements. They will be able to adequately track growth and success in physical, mental, and social scenarios. The economic burdens of others will be reduced as the participant's dependence on support organizations and medical subsistence will be decreased. The NAMI Wellness Project has seen measurable success and most importantly tremendous attitude and function improvements. Continuation of these services is essential to build upon and support the gains each uniquely troubled individual has worked so hard to accomplish. Each participant has clearly demonstrated how their position in society has improved and how their improvement will now assist others in the world they share. . EVERY dollar will provide services to the participants; no funds will be used for administration.
