NAMI Dubuque

NAMI Dubuque We serve our surrounding communities through peer-led education, programming, and support.

NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) Dubuque is a non-profit, tax-exempt grassroots organization advocating for all who are affected by mental illness. NAMI advocates for access to services, treatment, and research and is steadfast in its commitment to educate, support, and raise awareness in building a community of hope for those affected by mental illness and their families. NAMI stands firm in its conviction that mental illness should not be an obstacle to a full and meaningful life for persons with mental illness. Due to Covid-19 we have moved to limited office hours, but are available through email, phone, or Facebook messenger daily.

New year, new ways to connect! 🌟 We’ve spent the last few months listening to our community, and our 2026 schedule reflects that. Here’s a closer look at the intentional changes we’ve made to support you better:

☕ Spill the Tea: We recognized a need for a dedicated, casual midday space for women. This isn't just a support group; it’s an open-minded conversation about current events, personal successes, and the unique challenges women (18+) face today.

🔄 All Pathways to Reentry: We have evolved our recovery programming to specifically bridge the gap for those returning to the community from jail, prison, or temporary housing. By combining substance use recovery with reentry support, we’re creating a stronger foundation for long-term well-being.

🕊️ Healing Hearts Grief Group: We are moving from an open discussion to a structured educational format. Using the book "Grief and Loss," we will now provide a guided path to help you process complex emotions and rediscover your inner strength through specific, practical tools.

📍 Regional Focus: We are expanding our footprint in Manchester with new consistent hours and shifting our Epworth resources to Dubuque to ensure every resident in our three-county area has a reliable path to NAMI support.

Whether you are looking for a class, a creative outlet, or a peer who "gets it," our 2026 calendar is designed for you. Check out the link in our bio to download the full January schedule for Dubuque, Delaware, and Jones counties!

Happy World Introvert Day! 📚☕

In a world that often feels like it never stops talking, today is about celebrating the power of the quiet. For many of our peers, introversion isn’t just a personality trait—it’s how they protect their mental wellness and recharge their internal batteries.

At NAMI Dubuque, we know that "support" looks different for everyone. While some find strength in high-energy groups, others find it in:

One-on-one Peer Support: A quiet, private space to be heard.

Mindful Art & Crafts: Connecting through creativity rather than just conversation.

Quiet Advocacy: Changing the world through thoughtful, behind-the-scenes work.

Today, we encourage you to honor your need for solitude. Turn off the notifications, open a book, or just enjoy a quiet moment of reflection. Protecting your peace is a vital part of your mental wellness journey.

Wellness Tip: If you’re feeling "peopled out" after the holidays, give yourself permission to say "no" to social plans today. Your social battery will thank you! 🔋
