Overview

Mission

To help people impacted by mental illness by providing information and support to those who live with the illness and their families.

What it reported doing in 2024

NAMI WC continues to educate, advocate and support those who live with mental health conditions as well as their family members. More volunteers were trained, and weve added a support group for college students dealing with mental health. Weve expanded our support groups for any adult who lives with mental health conditions.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 75% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
