Did you know that the Sterling Silver Ribbon is the national symbol for NAMI?
In 2010 we will see nearly eighty NAMI Walks across America. This is the 8th year that Maryland has walked to change the mind of America. It is the first year that we will walk in Baltimore. This year's event is being held in two locations and for the first time in Baltimore, MD! The common goal is to make America a better home for people with brain disorders through education on mental illnesses and improved system-wide treatment opportunities.
NAMIWalks in Baltimore, MD is sponsored in part by CIGNA and Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene's Mental Hygiene Administration, as well as many other wonderful sponsors and partners.
PLEASE walkers needed to represent Baltimore ~ We will walk at the Baltimore Zoo!:)
To participate in the Baltimore WALK or as a walker/sponsor contact: Monica Briggs Anderson, Director of Development & Communications, NAMI Maryland - manderson@namimd.org or Stacey Harrison, NAMI Metro Baltimore - sharrison@nami.org.
