Amazing things
can happen
with your support!
Are you lucky enough to go through every day without feeling depressed, confused, agitated or alone?
One in five of us will experience these symptoms at
some point in our lifetime, due to a mental health
issue. Please join us as we walk to support mental
health recovery programs in our area.
We use funds raised at our Walk for Mental Wellness
for some pretty amazing, cost-effective programs:
NAMI Wayne and Holmes Counties is a
nonprofit organization whose mission is to provide
a place of safety where all persons affected by a
mental health concern feel accepted and can build
hope through peer based programming, and
deliver education, suicide prevention, and
support to family members and the community.
Under our umbrella of services, we're able to bring
together nationally-recognized programs and
local peer-supported activities.
We are supported, in part, by funds provided by:
 MOCA House Recovery Center, which provides
First Presbyterian
Church of Wooster
supportive and educational opportunities to
strengthen coping and life skills
 Peer-to-peer support groups and wellness
Join the fun!
Our mission

serve as Honorary Chairs
Drs. Dennis and Kathy Helmuth met on their first
day of medical school at Case Western Reserve
University. Now, thirty-six years later, they both
practice in the Milltown Professional Building,
Kathy as a pediatrician and Dennis as a psychiatrist.
“We believe in supporting community services,
especially NAMI, which gives a voice to individuals
and families affected by mental illness. Every day
in my practice, I see individuals who benefit from
the support and programs at MOCA House, says
Dennis. “The Walk for Mental Wellness is an
opportunity to show support for these important
community programs.”
Thank you, Dennis and Kathy — we appreciate
your enduring support!
