NAMI WALKS / NAMI-SFV

How can we help you?
At NAMI, we are families helping families. For many of us, "finding NAMI" was the end of a nightmare and the beginning of hope. We can share our experiences, understanding and compassion with you. We can tell you what worked for us what did not. We can be your guide to treatment, housing and education resources.

How can you help us?
NAMIWalks, held each October at the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica raises the nation's consciousness of mental illness, teaches the community about the signs of mental illness, treatments of various forms of mental illness, different types of medications, how to support those with mental illness and their family members, recovery of mental illness and reminds us all of the hope that some day a cure will be found.

Join us on the journey...WALK with us!


Virtual walkers are also welcome!
