A message from the Team Captain:
“Why I "NamiWalk"...
As my Italian grandmother used to say, "If you sit, you die!” How true that is for those and their love ones affected by mental illness. We actually have to take physical and mental steps to reach our healing, support groups, health care, in order to survive! Some-times we can take our own steps. Some-times we must take the steps for others, other times we must have others take the steps that we can't. That's the reality of dealing with mental illness. Taking a "Namiwalk" shows our community that we exist not in the "whispers or shadows" but in the light, free from shame among our neighbors, friends, family and co-workers. We are no longer invisible, we exist; we are real...and so is mental illness.
So why do I walk? I NamiWalk for those I know, those I do not, and those I will come to know. For I was, will be and am all of them, I walk for me.”
