Bipolar 1 Disorder

Meet John! John started volunteering with NAMI-NYC’s In Our Own Voice program. With In Our Own Voice, John had the opportunity to share directly with people living with mental illness how he achieved recovery and success. He even had the opportunity to return to one of the hospitals where he received treatment. Through volunteering with NAMI-NYC, John gives hope and helps others realize that it’s okay to talk, and even joke, about living with a mental illness.

We recognize volunteers like John during Volunteer Appreciation Week and every week. It is work like his that helps bring mental health support to those who need it.
