Northeast Michigan Wellness Initiative (NEMWI)

What is the Northeast Michigan Wellness Initiative?

The Northeast Michigan Wellness Initiative (NEMWI) is The Sunset Project's mental health-focused program working to raise awareness, end stigmas, and provide education through the implementation of in-school programming and involvement in various community events.

Since its launch in 2022, NEMWI has partnered with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Grand Traverse Chapter to implement its evidence-based "Ending The Silence" program in high schools across our seven-county service region. NEMWI also supports mental health-focused regional events, community panels, and activities as part of a strategy to promote a healthier Northeast Michigan.
