NAMI CCNS Resource Library

NAMI CCNS provides comprehensive directories to help individuals and families navigate the complex mental health landscape in our community.

The NAMI CCNS Greenbook

 

The Greenbook is our flagship community resource guide, updated for July 2025. This document serves as a “mental health encyclopedia” for the Cook County North Suburban area. It is specifically designed to support families and individuals in finding vetted, reliable care providers and support systems.

 

Inside this guide:

• Comprehensive listings of local therapists and psychiatrists.

• Inpatient and outpatient hospital program directories.

• Support groups for various mental health conditions.

• Crisis intervention contacts and emergency services.

 

This guide is curated by NAMI CCNS volunteers and staff to ensure that the resources listed understand the unique needs of our community members. We recommend downloading this copy for offline access during emergencies.
