NAMI Whatcom

Come join NAMI Whatcom at the end of this month at Sweet as Waffles!

We are so thankful to be chosen for their Waffle Giveback Tuesday event.

On June 30th from 5-10pm, Sweet as Waffles will donate 15% of food and drink sales to NAMI Whatcom. This means you can help support free mental health resources AND get a tasty treat.

Can't wait to see you there!

While we aren't able to offer the Creativity for Coping series as regularly we are happy to announce an upcoming workshop in June!

Have you ever been curious about dance, movement, or flow? Join us on June 12th at 5:30 PM for a flow workshop and flow jam at the NAMI Whatcom Office.

Don't know what flow is or how to dance? Well this is the perfect opportunity to learn how movement can be a wonderful coping skill for mental health AND can even be a new favorite hobby.

This event is free and will have flow props provided to use but any monetary donations will go directly to continuing mental health resources, presentations, volunteers, events and so much more.

For more information reach out to our Peer Program Coordinator, Brylie, at [email protected].

See you there!
