"It seems you were sent to my family for a reason, beyond just helping me deal with my sister's death. You opened my eyes to many things, and made me more aware than ever of the plight of the mentally ill and their families.

How wonderful that NAMI helps ease the burden, and how you wonderful that you helped ease my burden."

"I believe in what NAMI stands for – advocacy and support as well as help, hope and healing for all of those seriously challenged with mental illness. I find these values to be really positive and nurturing. Through NAMI, I have an opportunity to help others who might be having a difficult time struggling with what can be very overwhelming symptoms.

Over the past 20 years, I have struggled with mental illness and have come to appreciate the support of an organization such as NAMI. I hope to continue to support NAMI's endeavors to combat mental illness."
