NAMI Dubuque We serve our surrounding communities through peer-led education, programming, and support.

NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) Dubuque is a non-profit, tax-exempt grassroots organization advocating for all who are affected by mental illness. NAMI advocates for access to services, treatment, and research and is steadfast in its commitment to educate, support, and raise awareness in building a community of hope for those affected by mental illness and their families. NAMI stands firm in its conviction that mental illness should not be an obstacle to a full and meaningful life for persons with mental illness. Due to Covid-19 we have moved to limited office hours, but are available through email, phone, or Facebook messenger daily.
