NAMI Lake County

You Are Not Alone

We are the “safe haven” for those whose journey has brought you to us.

As the blades of grass in the NAMI logo symbolize, we are a grassroots organization comprised of families and individuals whose lives have been affected by serious mental illness.

We have been through the struggles of mental illness and are here to help others as we were once helped.

NAMI offers an array of peer education and training programs and services for people with a mental illness, family members, school professionals, providers, and the general public. NAMI’s education and support programs provide relevant information,
valuable insight, and the opportunity to engage in support networks.

These programs draw on the lived experience of mental health consumers and family members who have learned to live well with their illnesses and have been extensively trained to help others, as well as the expertise of mental health professionals and educators.

Whether you are a person with a mental illness, a family member, a school professional, provider, or a member of the general public, there is a NAMI education or support program to help you learn more about mental illnesses, develop coping strategies, or find the support you need.
