NATIONAL ALLIANCE ON MENTAL ILLNESS HAWAII

NAMI Hawaii is the state organization of the National Alliance on Mental Illness and operates a statewide affiliate network (Oʻahu, Maui, Kauaʻi and Big Island) delivering peer-led support groups, evidence-based education (Family-to-Family, Peer-to-Peer, Hearts & Minds, Ending the Silence, etc.), public education, and community advocacy. The organization focuses on supporting people living with mental health conditions and their families, reducing stigma, and strengthening crisis response systems across the islands. In recent years NAMI Hawaii has been active statewide in community outreach and systems change work, including coordinating Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) education with local law enforcement, running multi-island NAMIWalks fundraising events, and delivering free classes and support groups. The profile and financial filings for the organization (tax-exempt since 1997) confirm ongoing operations, significant contributed support, and active program delivery across Hawaii.
