Sometimes the best conversations happen on a walk. Join us for a relaxed and meaningful afternoon at Deer Grove West as we walk together in support of mental health awareness through NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness).

Whether you’ve personally struggled, supported someone who has, or simply believe in building a kinder and more understanding community, you’re welcome here.

Why This Event Matters
Mental health affects millions of people, yet many still feel isolated talking about it. NAMI helps provide education, advocacy, crisis resources, and support groups for individuals and families across the country. Even showing up helps normalize conversations around mental health and reminds people they’re not alone.

Parking
Free parking available onsite.

Suggested Items

  • Comfortable walking shoes
  • Water bottle
  • Weather-appropriate clothing
  • Optional sunscreen and/or bug spray

Can’t Make It? You Can Still Help
If you’re not able to attend the walk, you can still support the cause by donating through the team page. Our team has already raised $135 toward our fundraising efforts, and every additional donation helps us support NAMI's mission. Every dollar helps fund free mental health resources, education, and support programs.
