NAMI Antelope Valley (NAMI-AV) is the Antelope Valley affiliate of the national and state-level NAMI organizations, serving the northern Los Angeles county area.

Family and friends of the mentally ill are welcome to attend NAMI-AV meetings to learn about dealing with and supporting the mentally ill and issues that concern them.

NAMI-AV normally has four meetings each month.  Two meetings, on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of the month, are in English.  The other two meetings, held on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month, are in Spanish.  All meetings are from 7:00 to 9:00 PM.  We have speakers when available.    All meetings are free of charge.

The English language meetings are held in Lancaster near the corner of West Ave. J and 20th Street West at:

Kaiser Permanente

Enter the building from the south entrance (the side facing the Sizzler restaurant) and walk straight down the hallway to room C.
