NAMI Dubuque

NAMI Dubuque We serve our surrounding communities through peer-led education, programming, and support.

NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) Dubuque is a non-profit, tax-exempt grassroots organization advocating for all who are affected by mental illness. NAMI advocates for access to services, treatment, and research and is steadfast in its commitment to educate, support, and raise awareness in building a community of hope for those affected by mental illness and their families. NAMI stands firm in its conviction that mental illness should not be an obstacle to a full and meaningful life for persons with mental illness. Due to Covid-19 we have moved to limited office hours, but are available through email, phone, or Facebook messenger daily.

Our Anger Management series returns as a vital piece of the Soft Skills for Success curriculum! 🛠️

Anger is a powerful emotion, but it doesn't have to be the one in the driver's seat. Starting April 6th, we invite you back to our 11-week intensive designed to help you navigate life's frustrations with professional and personal grace. From 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM, we dive deep into:

Emotional Literacy: Learning to identify what you’re feeling before it boils over.

Myth-Busting Anger: Breaking down the misconceptions that keep us stuck in old patterns.

Coping Skills: Practical, real-world tools for the "heat of the moment."

Join us at NAMI Dubuque and turn your reactions into intentional responses. Register at www.namidubuque.org/classes.

It’s AmeriCorps Week (March 9–13, 2026), and we want to take a moment to celebrate the "heart" of our capacity-building team! At NAMI Dubuque, our mission to provide free mental health resources is powered by the dedication of our AmeriCorps VISTAs (Volunteers in Service to America). These incredible individuals spend their service terms building the systems and outreach efforts that ensure no one in our three-county area has to navigate their mental health journey alone.

A huge thanks goes out to our current VISTA team—Amy, Rachel, Barb, David, and Jim—who are leading the way by strengthening our Jail-Based Initiatives, enhancing our wraparound support, and building the sustainable networks needed for long-term community wellness. Please join us in the comments by thanking this dedicated team for their service to NAMI Dubuque and the Tri-State community!
