Baltimore Peninsula
NAMI Walks Greater Baltimore Community Walk

This is a NAMI Baltimore event as part of the NAMI #IWillListen week. Mental illness affects 1 in 5 adults in the U.S. each year, and Baltimore is no exception. In our region, far too many of our friends, neighbors, and families face mental health challenges without access to adequate support, care, or resources. That’s why NAMIWalks Greater Baltimore exists - to raise awareness and the critical funds needed to improve mental health services for our community. Two routes are available- 1 mile and 3 miles. Gather your friends, register for the Johns Hopkins University team, and show up to support mental health in our community!
For disability accommodations, contact NAMI Baltimore: Lori Gorbey, 443-529-0231, lgorbey@namibaltimore.org.
