The City of Montgomery began researching mental health issues as a result of a community survey health assessment conducted in 2019. The assessment identified mental health issues as a top concern. This was compounded by the effects of the pandemic. As a result, the Administration and City Council created a mental health initiative that provides educational presentations and resources to the community. 

Today, we welcome Nancy Eigel-Miller, who lost her husband Jim to suicide in 2008. Nancy is the founder of 1N5. The organization’s mission is to prevent suicide by erasing the stigma of mental illness and promoting optimal mental wellness.
