Millions of people are touched by mental illness. In America, almost 20 percent of adults are affected each year, having a profound physical, social, and financial impact. Conscious Step partner NAMI has offered help and hope to those suffering for over 40 years, with hotlines, resources, and community outreach for individuals. In addition, by supporting research and education and by building public awareness, their efforts work to break the stigma of mental illness and prove that no-one is alone.
