Advocacy



You have the power to change how decision makers support people with mental health conditions. Your personal story is always right — and it can change the hearts and minds of policymakers. NAMI’s grassroots advocates have helped pass federal parity laws and mental health reform, expanded coverage through the Affordable Care Act, and successfully fought back attempts to end patient protections. 


What does NAMI care about? NAMI supports a wide range of legislation — from mental health research to health care to criminal justice — that touch the lives of every person affected by mental illness. Learn which bills NAMI supports in the U.S. Congress.


Join our movement. Visit our action center to sign up for alerts, contact your policymakers, and to share your story. When we speak with a united voice, we cannot be ignored — and your voice adds to our power.
