Around 60 percent of adults with a mental health illness don't receive care. A study of over 90,000 people worldwide found that stigma regarding mental health is one of the top reasons individuals don't seek care. The Mental Health Network of Kankakee County, Spanish Community Center, and NAMI Illinois are hosting a mental health wellness fair Sunday, May 21 to help families and individuals understand, "It's okay to ask for help."

The fair will take place from 1-3 p.m. May 21 at St. John Paul II Parish, Kankakee. 956 S. 10th Street in Kankakee. Mental Health 101 presentations will be available in both English and Spanish as part of the event. Participating mental health and wellness providers will be available with information about services available to families.
