The University of Maryland School of Social Work (UMSSW) took a significant step forward in advocating for mental health awareness last weekend by participating in the NAMIWalks Maryland event. As a Silver Sponsor, UMSSW showcased its strong commitment to supporting mental wellness initiatives.
In addition to their sponsorship, UMSSW mobilized its community, raising over $2,000 in additional funds for the cause. The UMB Social Walkers Team contributed significantly to this effort, demonstrating the school’s dedication to mental health advocacy.
The NAMIWalks event provided UMSSW with a powerful platform to raise awareness, foster solidarity, and advocate for the destigmatization of mental health issues. Through their participation and fundraising efforts, UMSSW emphasized its commitment to creating a more compassionate and understanding society.
UMSSW’s successful involvement in NAMIWalks Maryland highlights the importance of collective action in addressing mental health concerns. Initiatives like these pave the way for meaningful progress, one step at a time.
