Fairmount Behavioral Health System Supports NAMI Walks!

On Saturday, May 6, 2017, over twenty Fairmount employees and their families participated in the annual NAMI (the National Alliance for Mental Illness) Walks. This was clearly one of the largest teams that Fairmount has ever assembled to support this walk! NAMI, is the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to building better lives for the millions of Americans affected by mental illness through education, advocacy and awareness activities.

Fairmount has been an annual sponsor and supporter of NAMIWalks, which is NAMI’s largest and most successful mental health awareness and fundraising event in the country! Through Fairmount’s public display of support for people with mental health challenges, we are changing how Americans view mental illness.

Fairmount would like to say “thank you” to all the Fairmount staff and their families who helped us raise awareness for individuals with mental health challenges and support NAMI as well as those staff who made personal donations!!

We hope that everyone who participated had a good time and we look forward to future community events!
