NAMI Minnesota

NAMIWalks is the largest anti-stigma event in Minnesota with over 2000 walkers! Mental illness is not specific to gender, race or class. People of all backgrounds come together each year in growing numbers to raise the public’s awareness of mental illness and to break down the stigma surrounding it. Join us in an inspiring demonstration of compassion and action.

With a festival atmosphere, the walk site in Minnehaha Park features local food vendors, the soul band, High and Mighty and other local musicians along the route. Check out information booths, free give-aways and prize drawings for top fundraisers and top teams. Get your team together and reach out to your family, friends and community to ask for their support. Stop by the photo tent to get your team picture taken. Bring your kids and check out the kids’ tent with face painting and art projects.
