Grassroots movements are powerful because they draw support from a wide range of individuals and communities to create a significant and diverse network of advocates. In this episode, Joe and Martín breakdown grassroots movements and why these types of movements are so important. They are joined by Brandon Graham, Director of Advocacy at NAMI, who speaks to how NAMI became the nation's largest grassroots mental health organization. Joe and Brandon discuss tips for increasing engagement and involvement in a movement, how to prevent advocate burnout, and how to prioritize your own mental health when working in these spaces.
