NAMI Omaha is currently 75+ members strong. We are a local affiliate of NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) and we provide education, support, and advocacy to consumers, family members, friends, and professionals in Cass, Dodge, Douglas, Sarpy, and Washington counties in Nebraska

 


NAMI Omaha holds monthly affiliate meetings on the Second Wednesday of each month at 6:00 p.m. These meetings are open to everyone and typically begin with a free lite meal and an update on events and happenings in the Omaha Affiliate, followed by a guest speaker who is a subject matter expert in their area of support for mental illness. The evening wraps up with social time to build relationships, make connections, and offer support to one another.

NAMI Omaha's Board of Directors meets monthly on the 4th Wednesday at 6:00 p.m. to discuss and direct the growth of NAMI Omaha. There are twelve current Board Positions with elections available or vacated seats held annually in October. Board positions are volunteer and come with a one-year commitment. Board meetings are open to the public.
