Gray Matters: Understanding Mental Health Concerns in Older Adults
Kay King, Older Adults Program Coordinator, Community
Educator, and the faith community liaison for the National Alliance
of Mental Illness of Minnesota, also known as NAMI, is here to
talk about mental illness in older adults and the supportive
resources that are available. Mental illness is NOT a normal part
of aging. Persistent symptoms that significantly interfere with daily
living and relationships may be a sign of a mental health concern.
Kay will cover some mental illness basics, general risk factors,
warning signs, treatment, recovery, suicide prevention, and
resources for supporting older adults. For more information, visit
