 The goal of the WALK is to raise both money and awareness of the need for an improved treatment and recovery system for people with mental illness.
All of the proceeds from the Walk will be used locally by NAMI Mercer and other New Jersey NAMIs in the following ways:
- To provide education and support to persons with serious mental illnesses and to their families;
- To advocate for nondiscriminatory and equitable policies at the federal, state, and local levels and in the private sector;
- To advocate for improved opportunities for housing, rehabilitation and meaningful jobs; and
- To support public education programs designed to help eliminate the pervasive stigma surrounding severe mental illness.
