Our Mission:

Support.

NAMI South Suburbs of Chicago (National Alliance on Mental Illness) is a not-for-profit membership organization created to improve the lives of individuals and families challenged by mental illness. In collaboration with NAMI National, NAMI Illinois, other Illinois affiliates, and like-minded organizations, we influence public policies, provide up to date education and support programs, and increase public awareness and understanding of mental illness.
