Help needed urgently
While there are many roles to take on at NAMI, our most urgent needs include those listed below. Training and ongoing support for all roles is always provided at no cost.
- Support group facilitators: Help support group participants feel comfortable and safe, guide conversation, and lead people to places of greater strength, connection and community. We're currently looking for people interested in facilitating these support groups: Family, Connection, Q Connect (for LGBTQ+) and Grupo de Apoyo para Familiares (for Spanish-speaking family members).
- Peer-to-Peer teachers: Leverage your own lived experience with mental health conditions by teaching NAMI's eight-week Peer-to-Peer course.
- Office volunteers: Office volunteers answer the NAMI office line and help with office projects during four-hour shifts between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Regular weekly slots are currently available, and we're always seeking people who are willing to fill in on an as-needed basis.
