Join us virtually on May 20th to celebrate the work of NAMI Cook County North Suburban. Our video presentation will include heartfelt stories about how NAMI CCNS Lights the Way for members of our community with mental illness and those who love them.  We are honoring NorthShore University HealthSystem for their unwavering support of our organization; our program will include a special message from Doug Silverstein, President of Evanston Hospital.

Following our video presentation, we will gather via Zoom for an After-Party hosted by Nathaniel Ekman, Executive Director. Connect with old friends and make new ones. Our Board and Staff will also be around to answer questions you may have about NAMI Cook County North Suburban. 

Event tickets include dinner from our partner, Curt's Cafe. Located in Evanston and Highland Park, Curt's Cafe improves outcomes for young adults living in at-risk situations through work and life skills training. Dinner is available for PICK UP ONLY at either the Evanston or Highland Park location.

In this ever-changing world, NAMI CCNS responds to the increasing need of mental health services by providing comprehensive, community-based, peer-driven and client-affirming supports for individuals and their families. Our classes, support groups, and community educational programs are provided free of charge to everyone. 

Special thanks to the Zall Family Foundation for their multi-year support of the NAMI CCNS Gala and our programs.
