Educating, informing, supporting

people with mental illness and their families

NAMI Tennessee is a grassroots, non-profit made up of families, consumers and professionals. We are dedicated to improving quality of life for people with mental illness and their families.

On this site, you'll find sources of support and education -- tools that help you and those you love develop the understanding, skills and strengths you need to cope with mental illness.  You'll also find ways you can advocate for improved services and programs in Tennessee.  Whether you're a consumer, family member, friend or professional, NAMI Tennessee makes your voice heard.

Someone you love has a mental illness.

That's why there's NAMI.

Featured Websites from the Spring 2008 NAMI TN newsletter

Team Up for Your Child, sponsored by NAMI Tennessee, is a 100-page, step-by-step workbook and CD that gives parents, foster parents and guardians a practical toolkit for participating in a child’s treatment. To purchase Team Up for Your Child ($15 per copy plus applicable sales tax, shipping and handling), go to www.meltonhillmedia.com.  

A portion of the proceeds will go to help to support NAMI Tennessee education and advocacy programs.

Today 1,500 Americans will attempt to take their own lives. One out of four adults is affected by a mental health disorder. We can defeat mental illness by employing the scientific mind to find individual treatment plans. But the funding is inadequate for an issue that affects every one of us, the 57 million directly or the rest of us through our family and friends. We must declare our concern. Together, we can stop the clock.

Please visit http://www.everyminute.org to find out how you can make a difference.
