Mental Illness Awareness Week

Take the StigmaFree Pledge

NAMI SWI is calling on everyone to learn the symptoms of

mental illness conditions such as depression, bipolar disorder, and

schizophrenia and to “go stigmaFree”. This is the perfect time for

all to take the stigmaFree Pledge. One in five adults experience mental illness problems every

year; however, 50 percent of chronic mental illness begins by age

14 and three-quarters by age 24. Although many people today un-

derstand that mental illness is a medical condition, individuals and

families affected by mental illness are still often subjected to stig-

ma and discrimination. Individuals, companies, organizations and others can all take the

pledge to learn more about mental illness, to see a person for who

they are, and take action on mental health issues. Take the pledge to

raise awareness:

Learn about mental health.

See the person not the illness.

Take action—spread the word and

help make a difference by raising awareness.

Wear your green awareness ribbon.

Take the stigmaFree pledge by clicking on the link below. Join

the stigmaFree campaign today to learn more about what you can

do to help and start replacing stigma with hope. Click here:

Hello Everyone, September 15, 2015

As we move into autumn, NAMI SWI continues to grow and flourish under the

capable leadership of Jessica Gruneich, JD, Executive Director. Thank you, Jessica,

for all your recent and successful efforts!

Let’s start with the really fun part! I have many thank yous and shout-outs this

month for members and supporters.

Thanks to Ann Barnum, Mary Ann Miller, Amber Kaan, Mary Gruneich, Herbert Lomax, Marianne

Kohrman, Kim McClellan and Sharon Zenik for completing our affiliate Parents and Teachers as Allies

training on August 1st, 2015. Our own Donne Reedy conducted the training for NAMI SWI.

Thank you, Kami Bonnell, Marie Krysnoski, John Person, Cheryl Rivers, Jamie Miller, Megan Munzert, Marion Endress, Tricia

Hogan, Cindy Mayhew, and Cathy Schultz for completing NAMI Connection and Recovery Support Group Facilitator training on

September 18th and 19th.

Thanks to Ann Barnum for coordinating our Allsup Post for a Purpose Blog about Suicide Prevention and Awareness, which has

provided financial benefit to NAMI SWI.

Thanks to Mary Gauen, Webmaster, who is working on completing mobile formatting and capabilities etc. for our website.

Kim McClellan and Eugene Luster are starting a new support group for parents and caregivers of children and adolescents with

mental health challenges on September 21st in East St. Louis. The new group will be under the sponsorship of NAMI SWI. Kim and

Eugene are doing a great job with East St. Louis outreach.

Peer to Peer leaders, Marian Endress and Tricia Hogan have completed the requirements as Certified Recovery Support Special-

ists (CRSS). Congratulations, Marian and Tricia!

A big shout out to all of the individuals mentioned above for your efforts on behalf of our affiliate!

We will be participating in the Region 5 Division of Mental Recovery Conference at Our Lady of the Snows Shrine Conference

Center in October. NAMI SWI had a table at the When Mental Illness Hits Home Conference at the Shrine on August 28 th. I

attended along with Jessica and De Familia-a-Familia leaders, Elfrend and Carlos Garcia.

Jessica, Kim McClellan and four of her sons (Youth MOVE members: Alan Williams, Fabian Luster, Seth Luster, and Ryan

Luster) and I attended the Sharing our Stories Conference for youth and parents at Belleville East High School on August 29 th.

Thank you, Dr. Dawn Porter, for putting this fun and informative event together.

De Familia-a-Familia has launched as our first Spanish language signature program offering on September 8 th, 2015 taught by

Elfrend and Carlos Garcia. We also have a new Family to Family class which just started in Edwardsville.

Jessica, Mary Pat DeJarnette, and I attended the first United Way Fundraising training in August. Peter Dodge, Mary Pat

DeJarnette, and I attended the second of the four trainings on September 12th. The training is truly awesome. We have been gaining

valuable knowledge about sending messages that “sizzle” to potential donors, perfecting the art and science of “the ask,” and

developing an effective fundraising plan. We are looking forward to the third and fourth session.

Our United Way Site Visit will occur on October 27th, 2015 at Gateway Regional. Jessica has been diligently preparing, and we

expect it to go well. We have our increased 708 Board funding, additional programming, and a solid budget to report on our site

visit.

Thank you all for your ongoing support and participation in NAMI Southwestern Illinois.

Regards,

Beverley Watkins, Ph.D., LCSW

President, NAMI Southwestern IL

health services. Sober for 15 years now, Herb is currently

helping others reach success in their recovery as the Coor-

dinator of the drop-in center at Community Counseling

Centers of Chicago. Herb is now a homeowner and lives

with his wife and family on the south side of Chicago.

After the keynote presentation there will be a live

WRAP for an hour. A WRAP class will be demonstrated

and the audience will join the class sharing in the group

discussion of the topics.

Other highlights: Afternoon Recovery & Wellness

Workshops; Information Tables; and Consumer Art Show.

Breathe Easy with AIR

What is Air? AIR (Anonymous Inspiring Relatable) is

the new NAMI app, a free, mobile-based social network

designed for individuals living with mental health condi-

tions and their family members/caregivers. NAMI AIR is

intended to provide another way for people to find and

give support, to connect with others through smart phone

and computer tablet. AIR encourages users to anonymous-

ly share their stories and receive feedback in the form of

social interactions such as “like,” “hug” and “me too.”

Also allows users to access information on how to get

help, learn more about NAMI and connect with the NAMI

HelpLine. AIR facilitates personal connections with others

who may be going through, or have been through, similar

situations. Users are anonymous but not alone.

How do I start using NAMI AIR? After AIR is down-

loaded through the Apple and Android App Stores, users

will start by creating an account and selecting a group to

join. Individual living with a mental health condition

Family member or caregiver What posts you see are

determined by the path you chose (for example, If you am

a caregiver or family member, the stories you see on your

feed will also be from caregivers or family members). You

can “toggle” between these two groups—so you can

choose to engage in one group, then select the other,

allowing you to interact in both communities. However,

you will not be able to interact in both at the same time.

How do users know that my information is safe and

confidential? Users don’t create any sort of username

while signing up. All posts are completely anonymous.

The only information you give is your email address.

Email addresses are only used for sign in and in case of an

emergency. So you can be assured that your posts and

participation are completely anonymous. Find out more by

The Power of the Green Ribbon

by Sandy Giger

These little green awareness ribbons really do spark

conversations. Last month my husband & I were at an

airport and I was wearing a hat with the green

awareness pin on it. One of the employees at

the airport that I was talking to was wearing the

pink ribbon pin and asked me what my green

ribbon pin was for? I explained that it was to

promote mental health awareness. I told her

that the brain can get sick too & that persons with mental

illnesses should not be stigmatized because of it.

I felt really good knowing that I possibly made a

difference in her line of thinking toward mental illness.

Please wear your green ribbons not just this month

during Mental Illness Awareness Week or during Mental

Health Awareness Month in May - wear them ALL the

time. Education is the KEY!! By working together,

we CAN make a difference.

If you misplaced your pin, pick one up from any of the

support group facilitators or call the office and make

arrangements to pick one up.

REMEMBER: The power of breaking down stigma

begins with a single story.

way for you to support your favorite

baby registry, log-in, and other account settings are also

the same.

HERE’S HOW TO SET UP YOUR FAVORITE

CHARITY ON AMAZON SMILE: simply go to

smile.amazon.com. On your first visit, you need to select

your favorite charitable organization before you begin

shopping. Select “NAMI SOUTHWESTERN IL-

GRANITE CITY, IL". Then...let the shopping begin!!!

tion, and then every purchase you make at

Mental Illness is Not A Casserole Illness –

Suicide Prevention Week is Sept 7-13

What does the general public think when they see or

hear the phrase “suicide prevention”?

What thoughts and feelings does the phrase invoke in

you?

The answer depends on our personal, lived experiences.

Many people may feel fortunate and thankful; some may

even be a bit pompous, thinking that mental illness and

suicide would never touch their family.

Others who have lost a loved one to suicide experience

shock, sorrow, regret, anger, overwhelming guilt…the per-

sistent feeling that they could have/should have known,

done something to prevent the horrible tragedy.

Perhaps the most damaging feeling of all is shame due

to the stigma associated with mental illnesses. It is terribly

sad for families to experience the double-edged sword of

loss and shame due to the stigma of mental illness.

Mental illnesses are medical, biological based illnesses

that affect the brain. When an individual experiences a

major physical illness, such as a heart attack or stroke,

many friends and neighbors in the community reach out

with care, compassion and a casserole, offering love and

support during difficult and tumultuous times.

Families and individuals experiencing a mental illness

rarely receive any community support and compassionate

care.

Any meaningful discussion about suicide prevention

must be held in the context of a much broader conversation

about mental illness, brain disorders, including major

depression, bi-polar disorder, and schizophrenia.

The stigma associated with serious mental illness (brain

disorders) prevents uninhibited discussion about

prevention, diagnosis, treatment and recovery.

Stigma stands in the way of millions of Americans seek-

ing out help and relief from illness. One in four Americans

are impacted by mental illness. It takes courage to stand up

and advocate for effective treatment, compassionate care,

and fundamental change throughout the mental health care

system.

As the harmful and sometimes deadly effects of stigma

disappear for this category of illnesses, more individuals

will be willing to discuss treatment, rehabilitation and

recovery.

Fortunately, there are numerous suicide education

programs like the QPR Institute (which stands for

Question, Persuade, and Refer) and Mental Health First

Aid that train the general public in responding timely and

effectively in a mental health emergency.

NAMI Southwestern Illinois provides free evidenced-

based education programs, support groups, and advocacy

presentations throughout the Metro East region. Standing

up and fighting stigma is the first step to suicide preven-

tion.

NAMI SWI asks for your help and support—you are not

alone in the fight to end stigma, join us today!

through the experiences of having a young child with a

mental illness.

and can self-disclose about their own feelings of guilt,

anger, shame, ambivalence and grief regarding their

training on how to teach the curriculum.

Be willing to make the commitment to participants in

JESSICA GRUNEICH

The number of mental

health beds is not suffi-

cient, according to Jes-

sica Gruneich, executive

director of NAMI of

Southwestern Illinois,

the local chapter of the

National Alliance on

Mental Illness. “We’re

talking about people’s

lives on the line,”

Gruneich said. “No one

is an expert until it hits

you and your family.

You have this medical

problem, and you

believe you can get

medical treatment for it,

and you have no idea

about the lack of

community support until

it hits you.” Often the

patient is sent away, to

hospitals as far away as

Chicago or even out of

state. That can be diffi-

cult for families, sepa-

rating the patient from

their local support

system. It’s a problem

that exists across the

region, advocates say —

patients from Chicago

are just as routinely sent

down to the metro-east

when their facilities are

full. _________

JENNIFER ROTH

Jennifer Roth, executive

director of the Madison

County Mental Health

Board, said of the six

hospitals in Madison

County, some do not have

any inpatient psychiatric

beds, some have limita-

tions on their psychiatric

services and some have

no mental health facilities

at all. “Whether there

are sufficient beds in this

county — region, if you

include St. Clair County

and the surrounding

rural areas — I would

definitely say no,” Roth

said. “Lack of community

psychiatric beds is a

continuing problem even

with the growth we have

had in the past year at

Gateway.” Jails often

keep someone who is a

danger to himself or oth-

ers in protective custody,

sometimes up to 48 hours

while searching for an

inpatient space, she said.

“The jails do the best

they can, but they are not

designed or intended to

be mental health

centers,” Roth said.

________

ERIN ECHELMEYER

Gateway Regional Med-

ical Center has the larg-

est ward in the metro-

east by far with 100

beds. Of those, 18 are

designated for children,

18 for adolescents, 18

for adult females, 23 for

adult males and the

remainder for older

adults. About 40 percent

of Gateway’s mental-

health patients come

from the emergency

room, and the rest are

transferred in from

other hospitals sending

their overflow to the

metro-east, according to

Gateway spokesman

Erin Echelmeyer. In

fact, more than 20% of

Gateway’s emergency

room admissions are

mental health patients,

Echelmeyer said.

________

SULBRENA DAY

Sulbrena Day, vice presi-

dent of Touchette ancillary

services, said the commu-

nity needs assessment

completed in advance of

Touchette’s application to

the state in 2013 highlight-

ed mental disorders as one

of the most common causes

of disability in the area.

Day said Touchette is a

“disproportionate share”

hospital, which means a

large number of its

patients are uninsured or

underinsured, and thus

they receive additional

support funds. It has its

challenges, but it’s not

impossible to care for

these individuals,” Day

said. “It’s our mission,

and we hold fast to our

mission.” The new facili-

ty at Touchette is under

construction and projected

to be completed at the end

of the year, with an open-

ing date in January 2016.

St. Elizabeth’s, Touchette

and Southern Illinois

Healthcare Foundation are

working on a transitional

plan for the new facility,

Day said.

Hospital Beds for People

Suffering a Mental Health Condition

The metro-east soon will have fewer beds available for people suffering a mental health crisis, even as advocates

say they need more inpatient beds for mentally ill patients in Madison and St. Clair counties.

In 2013, St. Elizabeth’s Hospital and Touchette Regional Hospital joined forces with Southern Illinois Healthcare

Foundation to build a new 30-bed behavioral health services center. It is intended to expand Touchette’s ability to help

patients who have a mental illness that arrive in the emergency room with a need for inpatient treatment. Currently,

Touchette has 12 beds available for mental health services, so the new facility will more than double Touchette’s

capability. But overall, it appears to forecast a decrease in the total number of beds available for mental health treat-

ment in the metro-east. At the moment, there are 35 beds at St. Elizabeth’s, 12 beds at Touchette, 100 beds at Gateway

Regional Medical Center in Granite City and 20 beds at Alton Memorial Hospital. That’s a total of 167 beds in the

metro-east.

But St. Elizabeth’s plans to close its ward when Touchette opens the new one. That’s a loss of 35 beds in St. Clair

County, which also lost 39 beds when Kenneth Hall Regional Hospital closed in East St. Louis. Once St. Elizabeth’s

closes and Touchette opens its new ward, there will be a total of 150 beds in the metro-east, or an overall loss of 17

beds.

Read below what some of our advocates have to say on this subject:
