Join NAMI Dubuque's David and Jim as they detail their innovative work bringing peer-led mental health programming into the Dubuque County Jail. This session outlines their initial success with NAMI Connection Support Groups and the subsequent, arduous process of establishing and adapting WRAP for Reentry and WRAP for Addictions courses.
