NAMI’s Annual NAMIWalks Fundraiser | Saturday, Oct. 10

Posted on by

Did you know 1 in 5 adults experience mental illness each year in the U.S.? On Saturday, October 10th, the National Alliance on Mental Illness  (NAMI) is holding their annual NAMIWalks fundraiser. 

This year’s event will be a little different: it will be a virtual event. Although we are not coming together as a large group, our participation is as important as ever due to the collective mental health needs of our community.

 We ‘walk’ to promote awareness of mental health, to reduce stigma, to build community, and to raise funds for NAMI’s mission of advocacy, education, support and public awareness. 

For more information about the walk or to donate.
