Our annual Community Dinner & Raffle is more than just a fundraiser. It’s a reflection of what’s possible when people come together to ensure that mental health support remains accessible to everyone.

Because of this event and the generosity behind it, NAMI Lehigh Valley is able to provide free support groups, educational programs, CIT training to local law enforcement, and resources to individuals and families throughout our community, removing barriers and ensuring that no one has to navigate mental health challenges alone.

It’s also a chance to gather, connect, and be reminded that support exists and that together, we can continue building a more compassionate community.

Volunteering doesn’t just help others - it helps us, too.

Being part of something larger than ourselves can have a powerful impact on our mental health. Volunteering creates connection, builds purpose, and reminds us that what we do matters. It can reduce feelings of isolation, strengthen self-confidence, and provide a sense of belonging that benefits both the volunteer and the community.

At NAMI Lehigh Valley, our volunteers play a vital role in helping us provide free support groups, educational programs, and outreach throughout the community. Every conversation, every event, and every act of support helps ensure that no one has to face mental health challenges alone.

Volunteering is more than giving your time. It’s helping create hope, understanding, and connection for others, while strengthening your own sense of purpose along the way.

If you’ve ever considered getting involved, we’d love to have you be part of our volunteer team! Consider signing up to help at our upcoming spaghetti dinner!

Together, we are building a more compassionate and supportive community.

Valentine’s Day can bring up a mix of emotions including love, gratitude, loneliness, joy, or even stress. And all of those feelings are valid.

Today is a reminder that love isn’t just about romance. It’s also about:
💙 showing kindness to yourself
💙 checking in on a friend
💙 setting healthy boundaries
💙 asking for support when you need it

If today feels joyful, we’re glad you’re celebrating.
If today feels heavy, you’re not alone.

Be kind to your heart today!
