What started as a small group of families gathered around a kitchen table in 1979 has blossomed into the nation’s leading voice on mental health. Today, NAMI is an association of hundreds of local affiliates, state organizations and volunteers who work in your community to raise awareness and provide support and education that was not previously available to those in need.

From blazing trails in addressing the education and support needs of families and consumers, to advocating for access to treatment and services; to bringing serious mental illness into the mainstream of health issues, NAMI has worked steadily for more than 30 years to truly become the Nation’s Voice on Mental Illness.

Your financial support is vital to this ongoing movement. Simply put, we cannot do it without you.
