THANK YOU to everyone who participated in NAMIWalks NH 2011 –
Sponsors, Team Captains, Walkers, Donors and Volunteers!
NAMIWalks NH was a great success. Over 900 people walked together in the largest anti-stigma event in New Hampshire! Together we have raised $110,000 in funds to support vital family education and support programs! Proceeds from NAMIWalks NH stay right here – helping New Hampshire individuals and families affected by mental illness and/or suicide.
Each year NAMI NH provides hope and help to over 11,000 people – your Walk donations help us provide continued assistance to those in need.
Did you know?
- In NH over next 12 months approximately 254,000 adults will experience one or more diagnosable mental health disorders.
- About 55,000 (1 in 5) children in NH – either currently or at some time in their life - have had a seriously debilitating mental disorder.
- Fewer than 1/3 of adults and 1/2 of children with a diagnosable mental disorder receive any mental health services in a given year.
- 90% of all people who die by suicide have either a mental illness or substance abuse disorder.
WE must raise the public’s awareness of mental illness as a chronic disease and break down the stigma that often causes people with mental illnesses to avoid seeking the treatment, services and supports they need and deserve.
Why we walk...
