NAMI works to raise awareness and provide support and education previously inaccessible to many people. NAMI Walks is their signature 5k fundraising walk, taking place in cities all over the country to raise money for local affiliates. ÌÀÍ·Ìõapp is proud to support such an important organization that aims to help people get access to care and reduce the stigma around mental health.
