About

Becoming a NAMI volunteer is rewarding and has a real impact on those you serve. You use your experience of living with a mental illness or your experience as a loved one or caregiver of someone living with a mental illness to provide support, education, or awareness to your neighbors.

Volunteers are trained to lead a program and are asked to commit to provide that program in the community. You can volunteer with your local affiliate, or start programming in a community that does not have an affiliate. Training is provided free through the NAMI Indiana state office.

Below are the current programs provided through NAMI and NAMI Indiana. If you are interested in getting started or if you'd like more information, please email [email protected].
