NAMI Rochester is very close to my heart. I am someone who lives with a mental health condition, and also am a volunteer at NAMI Rochester. The staff are great and the programs really help people like me and our families deal with the sometimes devastating effects of mental illness. The Connection support group for peers also offers social gatherings that are fun and give peers a chance to get to know each other. I highly recommend people check out NAMI Rochester if someone ever needs support, education and/or advocacy surrounding their mental health.
