The NAMI Effect

The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) began as a network of grassroots advocates. That spirit is alive and well in our organization. Our affiliate formerly known as NAMI Edmond-North OKC is an all volunteer group with a passion for helping others and improving the lives of those with serious mental illness.

Our affiliate is geographically defined by Oklahoma County. Because we are an active affiliate, we attract members from a wide attendance area. Our name change to NAMI Greater OKC reflects the area that we cover. Our name has changed but our mission and passion remains the same.

The mission of NAMI Greater OKC is to provide help and hope to individuals and families affected by mental illness throughout Oklahoma County. This is accomplished in several ways. We offer regularly scheduled family support group meetings. We provide much needed education by offering regularly scheduled NAMI signature family education programs developed by NAMI National. We also organize and encourage volunteers for the purpose of advocacy. Priorities include serving on community coalitions, participating in legislative advocacy, and Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) booster activities.

Membership and Support Groups: Membership in NAMI is open to all. By joining an affiliate, members also join that state NAMI organization and the national organization. It is not necessary to be a member to participate in any of the programs. However, membership is a requirement for volunteer and leadership positions.
