Mission: NAMI Southeast Wisconsin inspires the hope of recovery and deepens the understanding of mental health conditions for individual, families, and communities.
As of January 1, 2021, with the merger of NAMI Waukesha and NAMI Greater Milwaukee, we are now NAMI of Southeast Wisconsin, serving Jefferson, Milwaukee and Waukesha counties.
As a nonprofit organization, our purpose is to provide help to those affected by mental illness. Since 1978, we've worked to improve the understanding of mental health conditions and share the hope of recovery by offering information, support, education, and advocacy services. We strive to enlighten the public with the goal of erasing the stigma, guilt, shame, fear, ignorance, and discrimination that negatively impacts the lives of people affected by mental illness. We offer support groups, educational classes, Chapter 51 court support and advocacy, support and advocacy for individuals applying for disability benefits, homeless outreach, one-on-one support/education, monthly educational meetings, and current information on legislation pertinent to mental health. All of our evidence-based, signature programs are offered at no charge to the participants!
