ROANOKE, Va. - This week is national mental illness awareness week and some local folks took time to remember those suffering both in silence and out loud. The National Alliance on Mental Illness Roanoke Valley hosted a candlelight vigil inside due to rain in Roanoke's Grandin neighborhood on Tuesday night. They want to honor those who struggle with mental illness, both living and deceased, and those who try to help. "It is the opportunity to educate, to make the conversation normal," NAMI Roanoke Valley President Mary Parker Wilson said. Roanoke County leaders issued a proclamation for mental illness awareness week.
