The NAMI website has a “find help” link that will provide multiple credible resources to help anyone find the mental health resource they need for themselves or to a family member (Phillips, 2020). Although the NAMI website does not provide as much EBP information as expected on their website, they are a great resource to those who need to find credible or EBP based resources. It is important to remember that NAMI was a grassroots-based alliance that is continually growing. NAMI appears to be following the Quadruple Aim: Care, health, cost, and meaning in work by providing help cost-effective care to its members and providing meaning to the workplaces. The newest aim is crucial because it creates joy and meaning in the workplace, therefore, it improves the ability of the people in the organization to provide the best care for the mental health issues (Sikka et al., 2015).
