I’m interested in volunteering with NAMI – How can I get involved?
We would welcome your support as a NAMI HelpLine Volunteer!
The NAMI HelpLine is contacted over 50,000 times annually from individuals impacted by mental illness. Those reaching out to us seek assistance, and we rely on our devoted team of volunteers and interns to provide the vital support needed.
With extensive training and on-going support from NAMI HelpLine staff, our HelpLine Information & Resource Referral Specialists provide callers with information, referrals and support to people living with a mental health condition, family members and caregivers, mental health providers and the public. If you seek first-hand experience in a supportive environment that appreciates your service, we encourage you to apply to join our team of volunteers.
If you would like to volunteer to be a HelpLine Information & Resource Referral Specialist, you may apply
