Each year, the NAMI Arkansas End The Stigma 5K/Walk event strives to accomplish the following goals:

  • Increase awareness of mental illness by reaching thousands of people through team building, communications, promotions, and media activity.
  • Eliminate stigma by giving people a positive reason to talk openly about mental illness throughout Arkansas.
