Join NAMIWalks Massachusetts for our 22nd annual event! This is our largest event and biggest fundraiser, bringing together people of all ages to combat discrimination, raise funds, and promote awareness of mental health conditions. NAMI Walks helps us to fund free peer support and educational programs for individuals living with a mental health condition.

This year’s Walk takes place at the Boston Common, and will include activities, games, refreshments, and more. The Walk is about a mile, going along the perimeter of the Common. Be part of this powerful movement for mental health awareness, and together, we can take one step further in advancing mental health for all!
