The Berkshire County Chapter

of the

National Alliance on Mental Illness

(NAMI-BC)

is a grass-roots, non-profit, 501(c)3, organization

Serving Berkshire County families since 1984

Our mission is to support, educate and advocate for all those whose lives are affected by mental illness in Berkshire County.

Our vision is one of an integrated community where acceptance and hope are widespread.

We know first hand the challenges that families face when a loved one is diagnosed with mental illness. Since 1984 NAMI-BC has been helping Berkshire County families cope with mental illness by listening and sharing. We offer a unique perspective and understanding that doesn’t exist anywhere else. We provide education, advocacy, and support. NAMI-BC is made up of family members and friends, just like you, who realized that they needed assistance and support to get through this unfamiliar territory. Like you, we didn’t always know where to turn to get the answers that we needed.

NAMI-BC helps to provide the resources and guidance to start getting those answers, and can help make the connections you need to best help your loved one and yourself.
