NAMI SMC provides free education, support, and advocacy to people in our county who are living with mental illness and their families. In the past year alone, the organization has served 6,000 people through various programs, including NAMI’s signature Family-to-Family and Peer-to-Peer Classes, a dozen support groups, and a confidential helpline: 650-638-0802.
