Your Support for Mental Health has a Real Impact

I serve on the NAMI Yolo County Board because providing support to individuals who have a serious mental illness and their families is so important. Your gift to NAMI can have a big impact. It will allow us to continue and expand our support groups, to offer educational events that provide greater public awareness about mental illness, and to advocate for funding and policy changes. 

WHO WILL WIN?

This year, my fellow Board members and I are competing to win a special prize! Check out our team page to see who is in the lead. If I raise more than my team members, you will have the chance to see me wearing the coveted #1 hat prize in a photo on Facebook and Instagram, the NAMI Yolo County website, and in our email newsletter!

This Big Day of Giving your support will...

• Fund monthly meals for our CanDo program, allowing us to serve dinner once a month to mental health clients living in supportive housing residential homes in Yolo County
• Allow us to provide peer-led support groups, mental health classes, and presentations for individuals living with mental health conditions and their families at no cost to the attendees in Davis, Woodland, West Sacramento, Winters, and unincorporated areas
• Help us advocate for housing, mental health and substance use disorder programs, crisis services, and more
• Fund our annual holiday gift program during the holiday season so that mental health clients in Yolo County receive something special
• Provide training for new volunteers to be able to use their lived experience to uplift members of our community

Your generosity makes it possible for individuals who are struggling with their mental health and their families to find support, build community, and access mental health resources. The need in our community is greater than ever. The demand for mental health services has only increased since the beginning of the pandemic. Your gift will support families and individuals affected by mental health conditions.
