Mental health affects everyone, no matter who they are or where they are from. That's why NAMI Chicago is committed to showing up for everyone in our community—whether it’s Chicago’s first responders, students and school staff, a person on the other end of the phone, or in the community, meeting individuals where they are. NAMI Chicago knows that we heal on a community level. Read our Roadmap to Wellness here. 

At NAMI Chicago, we have the courage to believe that healing is possible. We work tirelessly, seven days a week to create a world that prioritizes mental wellness, and to bridge people into the care and support they deserve to live thriving lives of recovery. 

NAMI Chicago is the local Chicago affiliate of the National Alliance on Mental Illness. We are one of the largest, most active NAMI affiliates in the country, with full-time and part-time staff, graduate level interns, and weekly volunteers. We are growing and looking for dedicated team members to support our mission.
