About NAMI

Who We Are

NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, is the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to building better lives for the millions of Americans affected by mental illness. What started as a small group of families gathered around a kitchen table in 1979 has blossomed into the nation's leading voice on mental health. Today, we are an association of hundreds of local affiliates, state organizations and volunteers who work in your community to raise awareness and provide support and education that was not previously available to those in need. What We Do

NAMI relies on gifts and contributions to support our important work:

We educate. Offered in thousands of communities across the United States through NAMI State Organizations and NAMI Affiliates, our education programs ensure hundreds of thousands of families, individuals and educators get the support and information they need. NAMI shapes national public policy for people with mental illness and their families and provides volunteer leaders with the tools, resources and skills necessary to save mental health in all states. Our toll-free NAMI HelpLine allows us to respond personally to hundreds of thousands of requests each year, providing free referral, information and support—a much-needed lifeline for many. Public awareness events and activities, including Mental Illness Awareness Week and NAMIWalks, successfully fight stigma and encourage understanding. NAMI works with reporters on a daily basis to make sure our country understands how important mental health is. (Taken from https://www.nami.org/About-NAMI which is the National Page)

This week, Sheri Moore, NAMI West Central Indiana Executive Director, and Barbara Thompson, NAMI Indiana Executive Director, met with Indiana legislators to discuss extending eAPTCs and advancing two critical mental health policies: Barriers to Su***de Act and the PEER Support Act.

“Proud to advocate for a stronger, more accessible system of care,” Moore says. 💙

This Giving Tuesday, fund the full continuum of mental health care. 🧠

Your donation is not just one part of someone’s mental health journey. It can support every step.

After our team helps someone safely move through a crisis, they are welcomed into programming and support that guide them through the challenges of living with a mental health condition.

At NAMI West Central Indiana, we’re proud to meet people where they are, walk alongside them in their journey, and witness their growth and recovery.

You can make a difference today 💙🩵💚:

We had a wonderful morning this past Saturday at our Petal by Petal Bouquet Brunch in honor of International Survivors of Su***de Loss Day.

This gathering created a space for us to support one another, reflect, and take time to truly honor our loved ones by creating bouquets in their memory. 🪻🦋

Thank you to Pushpa Toppo for sharing her son’s story and for showing us how his legacy inspired the creation of the Ankit Foundation, which provides scholarships to students facing mental health challenges as well as an app loaded with mental health resources in Indiana. Your story deeply moved us and left us in a place of reflection. 🪞

As we move into Thanksgiving week, we are grateful to carry our loved ones in the forefront of our minds and in our hearts. 💕

It is with great sadness that we share the passing of Joy Mabbitt this week. Joy served as NAMI West Central Indiana’s Program Director from 2017 through April 2025.

Joy was truly the rock of our NAMI programs. She facilitated more than 500 support groups, offering compassion, steadiness, and hope to thousands of individuals. She also taught the Peer-to-Peer course and bravely shared her own story through NAMI’s In Our Own Voice presentation.

We extend our love and deepest condolences to Joy’s family. Her impact on our community will be felt for years to come.
