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.

Wellness is a mosaic. 🧩 It’s made up of different practices, different communities, and different ways of healing. This Wednesday at NAMI Dubuque, we’re highlighting two programs that offer unique ways to build a better life.

🎨 Mindful Art & Crafts (MAC) Join us at 4:00 PM to explore the intersection of creativity and calm. MAC isn’t about being a "pro" artist—it’s about using artistic expression as a form of mindfulness. Today, we’re using art to connect with our emotions and practice being present in the moment. It’s a fun, low-pressure environment where your only job is to find your own artistic voice!

🔄 All Pathways to Reentry At 6:00 PM, we gather for a different kind of growth. This peer-led support group is specifically for individuals navigating recovery from substance use and the unique challenges of re-integrating into the community after time in jail, prison, or temporary housing. We provide a judgment-free space to discuss coping skills and the essential steps for successful community re-entry.

The Common Thread? Community. Whether you’re picking up a paintbrush to find peace or sitting in a circle to find strength for the road ahead, you don't have to do it alone. NAMI Dubuque is here to provide the space, the tools, and the people who "get it."

"I just don't know how to talk to them anymore." 💔

Mental health conditions can strain even the strongest relationships. That’s why Family-to-Family focuses heavily on Communication Strategies and Empathy.

In this 8-week course, you’ll learn:

How to communicate effectively during difficult moments.

How to see the world through your loved one's eyes.

Practical ways to set boundaries while maintaining a deep connection.

Join us starting February 23rd and learn the language of support.
