NAMIWalks Massachusetts 2026 

More than 100 members of the Vinfen community joined thousands at Boston Common to support mental health awareness, recovery, and stigma reduction.

More than 100 members of the Vinfen community were among the hundreds of walkers that took to the Boston Common on Saturday, May 16 for NAMIWalks Massachusetts 2026. This popular annual fundraiser hosted by the Massachusetts chapter of NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) brings together individuals for a day of physical fitness, while celebrating recovery, raising awareness, and fighting stigma. Vinfen’s team of walkers, who departed from the Parkman Bandstand, included staff and a large and enthusiastic contingent of individuals we serve in our programs. Our thanks to NAMI for organizing another wonderful event, and to all the walkers from across the state who took the time to come out and promote mental health!
