About us
T
he
National Alliance on Mental
Illness of McHenry County (NAMI-MC) is a
non-profit, volunteer-based organization dedicated to
improving the lives of people who are affected by
mental illness.
We
offer an array of free
programs and services,
including self-help groups, family
and community education, and advocacy.
NAMI-MC is an affiliate of NAMI,
a non-profit organization with more than 210,000
members in all fifty states. NAMI
support and education programs are organized by our
volunteer staff who are specially trained and
certified. There is no fee to participate.
We hope that you
will join us for one of the many opportunities we
offer. You will find support in an atmosphere
of mutual respect and understanding of what you
confront when you, or someone you love, has a mental
illness. We understand, because we have
experienced it ourselves and joyfully share what we
have learned with you.
With
NAMI,
you
are not alone.
