The mission of NAMI Tennessee is to improve quality of life for individuals with mental illness, their families and communities. Toward this end, NAMI Tennessee actively seeks to promote access, equity and inclusiveness; and to discourage discrimination based on race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status and other factors which deny the essential humanity of all people. NAMI Tennessee actively seeks to include a diversity of participants in all of our programs and services.
