                                          Who We Are

                                          NAMI-FAMILYA  is a self-help and advocacy group for relatives and friends of persons
                                          living with a mental illness. 
                                          We are affiliated with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) and NAMI-NYS. 

                                          We work toward improving services and resources for individuals living with a psychiatric disability
                                          and their families through education, advocacy and support.  NAMI-FAMILYA welcomes
                                          individuals living with mental illness, family members, friends and mental health professionals
                                          who live and/or work in Rockland County.  We are a 501(c)3, non-profit organization
                                          funded primarily through contributions and membership dues. 
                                          Because our programs and activities are administered and carried out almost exclusively by dedicated volunteers, funds we receive go directly to our educational and support programs

                                          If you need help give us a call.
                                          We will provide you with information about resources, referrals to services and
                                          understanding, because we have been there too!
                                              
                                          Mission & Vision Statement

                                          We meet on the first and third Wednesday of each month.
