Join the PAU Paladins @ NAMIWalks Silicon Valley
Join Our Team
Welcome to Palo Alto University's (PAU) NAMIWalks journey—a journey of compassion, unity, and impact.
At PAU, we aim to prepare our students in behavioral health to address pressing and emerging issues to meet the needs of our ever-changing human condition. We believe in equitable solutions that uplift and transform lives.
We are proud to stand with NAMI to support NAMIWalks Silicon Valley as Bronze Sponsors of this year’s event. As the nation's largest grassroots mental health organization, NAMI is committed to enhancing the lives of individuals and families affected by mental illness. NAMI's impact is profound and this extends to NAMIWalks, which brings like-minded people together to amplify mental health awareness and NAMI's invaluable free resources and programs.
NAMIWalks is also an opportunity for the PAU community, along with friends and family, to demonstrate our dedication to behavioral health, well-being, and fostering a stigma-free environment. Our goal, first and foremost, is to come together as a community and to show our support through our team, the PAU Paladins! Note: Participation is not linked to raising funds. (You can put $0 as your fundraising when you register.) If you choose to fundraise, you can do so through the "Join Our Team" registration link or scan the QR code on this page.
Together, let’s stride toward brighter tomorrows through NAMIWalks Silicon Valley. Join our team, the PAU Paladins, and let's make a difference together!
