Increasing access to and impact of mental health services in black/african ancestry and other under-resourced communities through community engagement, listening sessions, advocacy, and programming. Nami dane county trained 185 law enforcement officers, first responders and community stakeholders in crisis intervention. We presented at and/or attended 66 community events/venues and provided resources and peer support via calls and emails to 867 people. In addition, over 5,000 individuals and businesses received our pioneer magazine publication, we had 51,962 unique website visitors seeking resources and information, approximately participants at our annual namiwalks and community celebration awareness events, nearly 3,100 social media followers engaging with our awareness posts, 164 in-person and virtual support groups for peers and families, and 6 public education classes for peers and families. We also hosted 2 legislative listening sessions and participated in the nami wi action on the square day of advocacy. Money raised through the namiwalk and other fundraising efforts support our no-cost groups, programming, advocacy and education.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
- Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
