NAMIWalks is the largest anti-stigma event in Minnesota with over 2000 walkers! Mental illness is not specific to gender, race or class. People of all backgrounds come together each year in growing numbers to raise the public’s awareness of mental illness and to break down the stigma surrounding it. Join us in an inspiring demonstration of compassion and action.

Whether helping a soldier with a connecting flight, distributing a Care Package, serving snacks with a smile, providing local information, or "welcoming home" troops from deployment, USO volunteers are vital to the success of the USO’s mission. While the duties of a volunteer may vary, the goal is always the same – to improve the quality of life of service members, to boost their morale and to serve as the link between service members and the American people. 

To find out how you can join the USO's corps of volunteers, please refer to our locations directory to contact the center nearest you.
