The NAMI Utah Salt Lake Affiliate is helping to fight the stigma of mental illness. Please join us and help educate the community.
What We Do
We educate. Offered in thousands of communities across America through our NAMI State Organizations and NAMI Affiliates, our education programs ensure hundreds of thousands of families, individuals and educators get the support and information they need.
We advocate. NAMI shapes the national public policy landscape for people with mental illness and their families and provides grassroots volunteer leaders with the tools, resources and skills necessary to save mental health in all states.
We listen. Our toll-free NAMI HelpLine allows us to respond personally to hundreds of thousands of requests each year, providing free referral, information and support—a much-needed lifeline for many.
We lead. Public awareness events and activities, including Mental Illness Awareness Week (MIAW), NAMIWalks and other efforts, successfully combat stigma and encourage understanding. NAMI works with reporters on a daily basis to make sure our country understands how important mental health is.
From https://www.nami.org/About-NAMI
It is the mission of the NAMI Utah Salt Lake Affiliate to take steps to actively fight stigma and misconceptions surrounding mental illness, offer classes to those with a mental illness and their loved ones and caretakers, and provide community outreach to educate the public about mental health issues. Because one in five adults will have a mental illness, mental health is no longer an issue we can ignore. Together we can stop the stigma and provide help to our community and loved ones.
