NAMI Eastside

Our Mission

At NAMI Eastside, our mission is to provide advocacy, education, support, and public awareness so that every individual impacted by mental illness or mental health conditions can lead a full and empowered life.

Who We Are

We are a passionate, grassroots nonprofit dedicated to changing the conversation around mental health across eastern King County. At NAMI Eastside, we shine a light on the real challenges people face when living with mental illness—and we meet those challenges head-on by offering free support groups, educational classes, and presentations that inform, uplift, and empower.

We’re not just raising awareness—we’re dismantling stigma and working to reform the systems that perpetuate inequality and silence. Our public policy efforts amplify the voices of our community, driving meaningful change at the local and state level.

As an affiliate of the national NAMI organization and NAMI Washington, we’re proud to bring trusted resources and compassionate peer support to our region.

Our Promise

Every program we offer is free, confidential, and led by trained volunteers with lived experience. We promise to create a safe, welcoming environment for individuals and families navigating mental health challenges—because no one should face this journey alone.

Why Your Support Matters

NAMI Eastside runs entirely on community support. Your donation directly funds the life-changing resources we provide—at no cost to those who need them most. With your help, we can continue building a stronger, more compassionate community where everyone has access to mental health support.

Help us make that promise a reality. Donate today.
