NAMI KNOXVILLE was honored to be part of the Tennessee Crisis Negotiators Association’s 2nd Annual Training Conference in Gatlinburg, TN! Programs Manager Baylee Armstrong and Board President Michael Baer were proud to share the vital mental health resources we offer — and to highlight how NAMI Knoxville continues to support our first responders and law enforcement partners. We’re grateful for the men and women who serve our community every day, often under incredible stress, and we’re committed to walking beside them with education, support, and hope. 💙 #NAMIKnoxville #MentalHealthMatters #FirstResponders #LawEnforcement #CrisisIntervention #CommunitySupport #TennesseeCrisisNegotiatorsAssociation Knoxville Police Department CIT International Knox County City of Knoxville
