The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) has selected Navigant (NYSE: NCI) as the first recipient of the Outstanding Friend of NAMI Award. The award honors Navigant for its exceptional efforts to further NAMI’s mission of improving the lives of people affected by mental illness.

“In choosing Navigant for this award, NAMI wishes to express our deep appreciation for their contribution of high-level strategic planning and development expertise,” said NAMI CEO Mary Giliberti, J.D. “Their commitment to mental health and NAMI has allowed us to tap into their expertise and use that knowledge to benefit all levels of the NAMI organization, as well as help people with mental illness and their families.”

According to Dave Zito, Navigant managing director and Healthcare segment leader, “Navigant is committed to working with providers, payers, and life sciences companies to help improve access to treatment and support networks, reduce stigma, and drive towards better health outcomes. We greatly admire NAMI’s resolve to making healthcare better for people with mental health conditions, and we’re proud to receive this prestigious honor.”

Navigant and NAMI have worked together since 2016, and the organizations are currently collaborating on NAMI’s long-term strategic plan. Navigant employees contribute thousands of hours each year in a variety of capacities, including skills-based volunteerism with organizations and communities in need.

“Navigant employees are passionate about mental health, having donated our consulting expertise and personal resources to help NAMI achieve its goals,” said Joanne McHugh, managing director at Navigant. “We’re grateful for the work NAMI does to improve the mental healthcare landscape and experience for patients, families, and caregivers.
