Episode 16 of Finding Community features Dave Mowry, who shares his story of living with mental illness that cost him his business, his home, and the “lost years” as a husband and father. Through the unwavering support of his wife, Dave found NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, and began his journey to reclaim his life. He is now Executive Director of NAMI Washington County and a best-selling author. Dave talks about the healing power of acceptance and community, and how telling our stories can help others see themselves and know they are not alone.Transcripts available here: https://bit.ly/Ep16_TranscriptsFind NAMI Washington County at: https://www.washconami.org/Find Dave's books at: https://amzn.to/3PAUArWLearn more about VAN and our initiatives:https://www.visionactionnetwork.orghttps://www.facebook.com/VisionActionNetwork/https://www.instagram.com/visionactionnetwork/This episode was produced by Glenn Montgomery for Vision Action Network.
