The National Alliance on Mental Illness (N.A.M.I.) book group's aim is to remove the stigma of mental illness through open discussion. This month they will be discussing the book Crazy: A Father's Search Through America's Mental Health Madness by Pete Earley. In this book, the author shares his frustrating experiences trying to get help for his son, Mike, who began having psychotic episodes when he was in his early twenties, and discusses what he learned about the state of the mental health system in the U.S. through his investigations inside the Miami-Dade County jail. Please note that this is a book discussion, not an author talk.
