2018 NAMI Walk

DSW students, friends, family members, and DSW faculty participated in the 2019 NAMI Walk on October 20, 2019. NAMI (the National Alliance on Mental Illness) is the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to building better lives for the millions of Americans impacted by mental illness. Social workers were well represented at this event ~ one of the key coordinators was our own Kathleen Rhoads Merriam, MSW Class of 2012!

A big mahalo to our student organizations, Phi Alpha, Nu Sigma Honors Society, the DSW-Graduate Student Organization, and the BSW Organization for helping to coordinate efforts. A special thank you to Keisha P. for being our Team Captain this year!
