Here's how NAMI describes themselves:
▪ NAMI (the National Alliance on Mental Illness) is the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization providing advocacy and public awareness, no-cost support and education programs online and in more than 650 communities across the country so that people and families affected by mental health conditions can build better lives.
▪ We value hope, inclusion, empowerment, compassion and fairness; we fight for equity and justice while providing hope so that no one person is alone in their struggle.
▪ Regarding the Coronavirus, more than one-third of Americans say the pandemic is having a “serious impact” on their mental health (APA, March 25 survey)
▪ Regarding the Coronavirus, young people are experiencing negative mental health impacts. 24% of young adults (18-29) reported experiencing psychological distress, compared to 3.7% in 2018.(JAMA, June 3, 2020)
▪ We know that anxiety and mood disorders are prevalent, stats pre-pandemic:
o Anxiety—19% of adults and 7% of children ages 3-17
o Mood disorders—9.8% of adults including depression and bipolar disorder
▪ AND at NAMI, They know this is really impacting our daily lives, our mental health vulnerability. The NAMI HelpLine has experienced a 65% increase in call volume. Top concerns are support/encouragement/reassurance and information on treatment options.
▪ And our NAMI.org site on COVID and Mental Health has received more than 400,000 visitors, and tens of thousands to the Spanish-language guide, too.
