NAMI Greater Los Angeles County Completes Re-affiliation Process and Unveils New Governance Structure

On Friday, September 20, 2024, NAMI Greater Los Angeles County (NAMI GLAC) successfully completed its re-affiliation process, marking a significant milestone in its mission to support individuals and families affected by mental illness. This accomplishment establishes a new, streamlined governance structure that integrates five former NAMI affiliates—NAMI GLAC (which includes NAMI Glendale), NAMI Pomona Valley, NAMI San Fernando Valley, NAMI San Gabriel Valley, and NAMI South Bay—as chapters under one unified entity.

The five chapters will operate within the NAMI Alliance as Model B affiliates under the governance of NAMI GLAC. This new structure enhances the delivery of NAMI’s signature programs, services, and advocacy efforts across most of Los Angeles County – including the Long Beach area – providing a unified and efficient framework to serve better the unique needs of communities in this metropolitan area. By consolidating the efforts of these local affiliates, NAMI GLAC is poised to offer a stronger, more cohesive network of support for those impacted by mental health conditions.
