Celebrating Heroes of Mental Health
Join us at the Valley Lo Club for conversations and support that breaks barriers. NAMI CCNS continues to provide stigma fighting advocacy toward recovery for families and individuals. This year we are pleased to be joined by these amazing heroes of mental health.
Celebrating its 13th year, the NAMI CCNS Gala is one of the most notable events in the Chicagoland. The NAMI Gala has raised more than $1.4 million to help fund NAMI CCNS’s core mental health programs, courses and support groups. The evening supports NAMI CCNS’s work in more than 5 counties in the North Suburban Chicago area.
Join us on Saturday, April 25, 2020, for a memorable evening to put children’s mental health first!

Special Guest Speaker: Chris Prochut
From a police commander and police partner to the infamous Drew Peterson to a mental health advocate, Chris Prochut has taken steps to stop the stigma surrounding mental illness through sharing his own story. Prochut, a mental health advocate and suicide prevention trainer, took a stand to end the stigma surrounding mental illness. Along with fighting his own mental illness, Prochut has spent the last six years traveling nationwide sharing his journey to survival in hopes to ‘start the conversation about mental health in America.’
Chris Prochut has had the honor to present to over 10,000 law enforcement officers across the United States and Canada on the topics of suicide and depression warning signs, medication myths, department policy revision, and speaks of his personal experience with the stigma of mental health during his time in law enforcement.
