Nov. 11--WILMINGTON -- Due to the COVID-19 risks, our 2020 NAMI Wilmington Walk for Awareness will become a virtual walk/run/bike -- Walk YOUR WAY Saturday, November 14.

The NAMI walks are always a time for those living with Mental Illness and their friends and family to come together to: learn more about Mental Health issues, offer hope to one another, and raise money to fund special programs and support groups. Those goals are as important as ever in 2020. Participants can simply run/walk/bike in your home, yard, neighborhood or park. Of course, maintaining social distancing and masks as appropriate. Choose your way and and post pictures at https://www.facebook.com/NAMIWilmington/ if you would like.

The need for donations for the mental health community is greater now than ever. To donate, visit https://namiwilmington.org/.
