About Us

NAMI on Campus at CSU Pueblo is a student-led organization dedicated to supporting mental health and promoting awareness across our campus. We are part of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), a leading mental health organization, and we share their mission of improving the lives of individuals and families affected by mental illness. Our focus is on providing CSU Pueblo students with the tools, resources, and support they need to maintain their mental well-being and feel connected within our campus community.

At NAMI on Campus, we strive to foster a culture of openness, compassion, and understanding when it comes to mental health. Through a combination of peer support, educational events, and advocacy efforts, we seek to empower students to take control of their mental health and to help one another. Some of the activities and initiatives we offer include:

• Peer Support Groups: Safe and confidential spaces where CSU Pueblo students can share their experiences, find understanding, and offer support to one another.
• Educational Workshops and Events: Engaging sessions that provide information on mental health topics, coping strategies, and resources available to students.
• Awareness Campaigns: Campus-wide efforts to break the stigma surrounding mental illness and encourage a culture of acceptance and mental wellness.
• Advocacy and Outreach: Working to ensure that CSU Pueblo students' voices are heard when it comes to mental health policies, services, and programs on campus.
