Pathways to Hope this year was nothing short of incredible! This powerful event united individuals, families, faith leaders, and more in the mission to break the stigma around mental health and build a culture of understanding and support. Our CEO, Dan Gillison, Jr., joined Doug Beach, Executive Director of NAMI Greater San Antonio, and Tommy Calvert, Bexar County Commissioner, Precinct 4, to kick off the Pathways to Hope San Antonio conference. The sessions that followed sparked meaningful conversations and innovative ideas to create a truly 360-degree supportive community.
