Our Mission
Our mission is to help families and individuals affected by mental illness build better lives through education, support, and advocacy.
We educate the public, advocate for legislation, reduce stigma, and improve the mental health system.
Our Impact
Depression is the leading cause of disability worldwide
90% of those who die by suicide have an underlying mental illness. Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the U.S.
Despite this, only 60% of adults with a mental illness didn’t receive mental health services in the previous year.
So What Can We Do?
NAMI-NYC helps families and individuals affected by mental illness build better lives through education, support, and advocacy.
We offer a variety of services including FREE mental health classes, support groups, family mentoring, a Helpline, and more.
Helpline
Our Helpline is available every day to give support, and point people to the resources they need.
Support Groups
Our support groups are available by video and phone for a variety of mental health concerns, from young adults to 55+, for caregivers, family members and individuals living with mental health conditions.
This holiday season, give individuals hope with a special gift to NAMI-NYC.
Help us continue to support people living with mental illness.
