Want to be one of the cool kids? On Saturday, Oct. 20, from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Wood County will be hosting an event called KidShop. KidShop is a fun affair for adolescents affected by mental illness. The workshop teaches kids about mental illness, coping skills, and assists them to form friendships with peers that have lived through comparable experiences.
The event will be hosted at the NAMI Wood County office at 541 W. Wooster St., Bowling Green. Parents can RSVP for their kids by calling 419-352-0626.
Please note that everyone must be registered by Monday, Oct. 15. Children will be required to bring a paint shirt and should be dropped off at 9 a.m. to complete mandatory program forms.
For more information, call (419) 352-0626, email info@namiwoodcounty.org, or visit NAMI’s Facebook page @namiwoodcounty.
