1. A forum is a breeding ground for ideas. To be an effective blogger, I need to know what people are chatting about to give them great content, answer their questions, and be of service. Tuning in to the chatter on a forum sparks ideas for blog posts. The blog provides a desirable connection for Nipissing Family Blog members, and the forum, in turn, gives the blog a built-in audience.
2. A forum fosters group dialogue. Sure, most blogs allow comments. But comments are not really a dialogue, they’re a response to a monologue. A forum is a far better platform for conversations and relationships to develop—and this is where community building really takes off.
3. A forum is a great place to discover people. This is the perfect venue to find people with compelling ideas and an engaging writing style to guest post on our blog.
If you participate on the Nipissing Family Blog and are someone who wants to grow with your community and reach out to other family members who support a loved one with a mental health issue—this is something for you!! Please check out our new Nipissing Family forum by clicking on the following link.

You will then have to register and create a “forum name” for yourself. This could be your actual name or anything you like. The amount of personal information you would like to share is up to you! My name on the forum is “araftis”
Please let me know what your thoughts are! I am looking forward to engaging in discussion with you on our new forum. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call or write.
Thanks,
April
