The NAMI Mass COMPASS is your guide to mental health and related resources in Massachusetts. Navigating the mental healthcare system can be complicated – we help individuals and families affected by mental health issues find their way.
The NAMI Mass COMPASS is operated by peers and family members who have dealt with these issues first hand. Navigators are available to answer a wide range of questions and refer to NAMI support and education programs and other community resources.
Common questions and topics include:
- Where to find support (Peer and Family)
- How to access treatment
- Employment issues
- Police and legal system
- Housing programs and questions
- Managing financial stress
- NAMI education programs
- Substance use
- Discharge rights
- Transportation
- Health insurance issues and questions
- Benefits (SSI/SSDI)
- Youth and transition
