NAMI is thrilled to announce NAMI On Campus High School, a response to the pressing need for targeted support for youth mental health. With a steadfast commitment to addressing these challenges head-on, NAMI On Campus is extending its reach to high schools nationwide. This expansion marks a pivotal moment in the ongoing effort to create a supported and informed generation.
Supported by NAMI State Organizations and Affiliates, these student-led clubs create safe spaces for open dialogue, peer-led activities and crucial resource-sharing. NAMI On Campus fosters an inclusive environment where all students can get help and learn how to safely navigate through their mental health journey.
Key Priorities:
- Cultivate a supportive environment for student mental health.
- Disseminate information on school and community resources.
- Promote early recognition of mental health signs.
- Encourage seeking help for mental health challenges.
- Drive conversation to eliminate mental health stigma.
