NAMIWalks is the largest fundraiser and awareness-raising event for the National Alliance on Mental Illness, a grassroots mental health advocacy organization started over 30 years ago by the families of people with mental illness. It’s a fun, family-friendly event that has become much more than a fundraising walk, and we want TEAM RIVERSIDE COMMUNITY CARE to be a big part of the fun! You will have the opportunity to check out the tables and booths of other partners, hear some fantastic speeches from community partners and people served, and walk the Common to show your support. We hope to see you there!
