Big News: We're Going Virtual!
After much careful and thoughtful consideration, the decision has been made to move NAMIWalks Virginia to a virtual platform this year. The virtual walk take place on Saturday October 10th. In addition to being the new date for NAMIWalks Virginia, October 10th is also NAMI’s National Day of Hope , as well as World Mental Health Day . We are excited to embrace the new opportunities this unique virtual event has presented us with, and hope you will join us and Walk Your Way !
What Now?
A virtual walk... what does that mean?
Join us and Walk Your Way -- move or create in a way that feels good to you! One of the beautiful things about our walk going virtual is that YOU can determine how you participate (hint: you don't even have to walk!). Some people will cook a meal and share it with their family, others will go outside and paint a beautiful landscape, still others will stay in and watch their favorite movie! The possibilities are endless. Whatever you decide, make sure it's something that makes you feel good!

Should I keep fundraising?
Yes! Even though our event is online, we are still working hard to raise funds for NAMI Virginia and our Affiliates. Every dollar raised during our Walk season will go towards providing FREE programming to individuals who have been diagnosed with mental illness and their families.

What will happen on October 10th?
We're still putting together the details, but you can expect a live-stream filled with fun activities like yoga and meditation, breakout sessions via Zoom where you can hear about NAMI programming from our affiliates, and much, much more! Stay tuned...
