Join JLongtin Law for NAMIWalks on May 30 to raise money and awareness for mental illness. We will be joined by over 120 NAMIWalks sites across the country in a day of solidarity and awareness. The day itself will be called Mental Health for All: A National Day of Hope.

Traditionally a 5K walk, NAMIWalks will look a little different this year. Rather than cancelling the event at a time when our collective mental health needs are at their greatest, NAMIWalks will be a virtual event. It is now easier than ever to support mental health for all. Plus, all funds raised from NAMIWalks will go to support the local NAMI chapter’s programs and advocacy.

How You Can Support NAMIWalks Your Way

There are a couple ways in which you can participate in this year’s NAMIWalks. First, you can join our team and participate with JLongtin Law. Or, you can support our team by making a donation to a team member listed on our roster.

Together, we can:

  • Promote awareness of mental health and reduce stigma, in this difficult year more than ever, by sharing our stories widely.
  • Raise funds for NAMI's mission of advocacy, support and public awareness.
  • Build community and reassure people they are not alone.

All funds raised will go to support the mission of NAMI to provide support, education, and advocacy to individuals and families in our community. Together, we are moving closer to a world where all people affected by mental illness live healthy, fulfilling lives supported by a community that cares.
