NAMIWalks 2026: We're Still Walking

Our NAMIWalks Dane County event on Saturday, October 3rd was a day of awareness, community building, and hope. Thank you to the hundreds of Walkers, supporters, and volunteers who made our largest public awareness event of the year a HUGE success!

If you missed it, no worries! We continue fundraising until December 1, 2026. Please continue to share this campaign with your family, friends, neighbors, and colleagues.

Tell them about the work that NAMI Dane County does in the community. These crucial funds allow us to keep providing no cost support and education, encourage a better understanding of mental illness, and reduce stigma.
