NAMIWalks, Changing Minds One Step at a Time, celebrates hope! NAMIWalks' momentum is unstoppable! NAMIWalks Greater Cleveland brings together over 2,000 participants walking together in support of children and adults with mental illnesses and their families.
Save the date for September 22, 2012 take your first step along with thousands of others to raise the public's awareness of mental illnesses and break down the stigma surrounding it. There is no walker registration fee for the Walk. All participants are encouraged
to collect donations from family members, friends, co-workers, and business associates in support of their participation in the Walk. All the funds collected by Walkers will be used to fund NAMI's programs here in GREATER CLEVELAND. These programs include
support, education, research, and advocacy involving schizophrenia, bipolar disorder (manic depression), major depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder and severe anxiety disorders. All walkers raising $100 or more will receive a NAMIWalks event t-shirt.
Center for Families and Children is our Kick-Off Lunch sponsor this year. This FREE lunch is on July 17, 2012 at the CFC center from 11:30-1:00pm. Details to follow.
