NAMI Southwest Washington

NAMI Southwest Washington is dedicated to all people affected by mental illness through education Each state also has a state organization.

We are dedicated to helping all individuals and families struggling with mental health challenges through education, support, advocacy, and awareness. We provide unique mental health services that otherwise are unavailable or inaccessible for many individuals and families. All of our services are offered at no charge and are confidential. NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, is the largest grassroots mental health organization in the nation, headquartered in Virginia. Communities or counties within the states have affiliate organizations. Many affiliates work under their own independent non-profit charter. NAMI SW WA was first chartered in the late 1970's. We Believe That:
• People can learn to manage their mental health diagnosis and can and will take responsibility for their recovery
• People with a mental health diagnosis are entitled to live the highest quality of life possible, in their own communities of choice
• Family and social support are essential for recovery
• Family members can learn how to cope and determine
how best to take care of themselves

NAMI advocates for access to mental health services, treatment, and support; we are steadfast in commitment to raising awareness and building a supportive community for individuals and they families who are affected by mental illness.

This article by Ann Donnelly speaks to something many families in our community already know, Washington’s mental health system is still falling short of the need. When treatment beds are limited, services are hard to access, and people cannot get support early, the impact does not disappear.

We are proud to be part of a community that continues to show up, advocate, and build support anyway. At NAMI Southwest Washington, we believe mental health care should be available, accessible, and treated with urgency.

Some days feel heavier than anyone around you can see. This reminder matters, you are more than the stress, fear, pain, or uncertainty you may be carrying right now. What you are facing may be real, but it is not the whole story of who you are.

If today feels hard, take a breath and be gentle with yourself. Reaching out for support is not a sign of weakness, it is a sign that you matter. You do not have to carry everything alone. https://namiswwa.org/

We had a great kickoff meetup for our NAMI Walk 2026 at Loowit Brewing in Downtown Vancouver last night! 🎉

Executive Director Kim Schneiderman thanked attendees for their support, highlighted the importance of our mission, the walk, and our free mental health programs, and celebrated some exciting early momentum. With two months to go, we’ve already reached 20% of our fundraising goal and have 51 participants across 11 walking teams signed up!

It’s still early, and we’re just getting started. There’s plenty of time to join us on Saturday, May 30th at Marine Park. We’re excited to keep building momentum and welcome even more walkers, supporters, and community members in the weeks ahead.

Stress does not always look dramatic. Sometimes it looks like carrying too much for too long, feeling tired all the time, losing patience more quickly, or struggling to slow your mind down even when the day is over.

Tanya, a single mother of two, thought stress was just something she had to push through, until she realized it was affecting her sleep, her mood, and her ability to be present with the people she loved.

FLARE by NAMI is a new, flexible mental health literacy curriculum designed for students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade.

Educators can choose from 23 ready-to-use lessons and mix and match them to fit their students’ needs and state requirements. FLARE is designed for schools to use directly in the classroom, so it does not require volunteer delivery or special training.

This is a meaningful step toward helping young people build understanding, reduce stigma, and learn how to seek support early.
