Episode Six of Season Two has Justin welcoming Chance Savant to Anxious Ambition!

A Louisiana native and graduate of McNeese University in Lake Charles, Chance is currently the executive director of the Southwest Louisiana chapter of NAMI, or the National Alliance on Mental Illness. Coming from a small town of roughly 2,000, Chance was unaware of the mental health services that could have helped someone in his position. It wasn’t until he left Kinder that he became cognizant of everything offered. This prompted him to pursue a degree in the mental health field and do his best to pay it forward.

Founded in 1979 in Wisconsin, NAMI is one of the largest national grassroots, nonprofit organizations. With multiple chapters in many states, they exist to provide mental health services to their surrounding areas, including educational courses, support groups, and seminars for all ages. Chance’s specific chapter of NAMI currently serves Calcasieu, Cameron, Jeff Davis, Allen, and Beauregard Parishes. You can find out more about NAMI and what they do at NAMI.org!
