The following is from Joe Lovelace, Executive Director of NAMI Texas. Please e-mail him directly at amidad@... to respond. Please note that With Hope in Mind is the new name for Journey of Hope; Texas Team Solutions is the new name for Team Solutions and the Wellness Group and NAMI-C.A.R.E. are practically the same thing. NAMI Texas just likes to their own twist on things for whatever reason.
Your quotes and responses would be greatly appreciated.

I need your quote if you have taken any of the NAMI Texas Curriculum outlined below. Let me know in a sentence or two what the class/support group has meant to you.
It will be used in the response being prepared to the Department of State Health Services' RFP.
Thanks,
