What Is a NAMI Support Group? 

A free, confidential, peer-led support group for any adult who has experienced symptoms of a mental health condition (such as anxiety, depression, PTSD) or adults who are family members or caregivers of individuals living with mental illness. Groups provide insight into the challenges and successes of others facing similar circumstances. Groups are led by trained leaders who have had lived experiences. Groups are held in-person and zoom at various days/times.

MORE WAYS TO VOLUNTEER.

Events

NAMI Walks is our largest fundraising event of the year. All funds raised allow us to provide education, support, advocacy, and information to those with a mental health condition, their families, friends, and the community for free. Volunteering with NAMI Walks could include helping us with set up, handing out water, signing in participants, handing out t-shirts and clean up. Fashion & Fire is our fashion show held with local boutiques at a local venue. This year’s event was a huge success, thanks to our sponsors and volunteers. We need help with greeting, signing guests in, selling raffles, and helping with boutiques and models.

Outreach

Volunteers help to table events at the local Farmer’s Market, volunteer fairs and other outreach opportunities to educate our community and further our mission.

Office Assistance

We can always use help with writing thank you notes, donor correspondence, inventory management, office organizing and much more!
