NAMI is made up of local affiliates within state associations, which then form NAMI National.  Most members of NAMI are part of an affiliate, a state organization and the national organization. The treasurer of each NAMI Affiliate collects a dues payment from each individual or family unit that is made up of the membership fee for NAMI national, the fee for NAMI Michigan and the fee for the local NAMI affiliate. The local affiliate determines its local fees. Reduced fees or scholarship help is available for persons of limited income.

The minimum “OpenDoor Membership” fee is $1 for NAMI National, $1 for NAMI Michigan plus whatever the local affiliate charges for its “Open Door Membership.” An active, voting affiliate of NAMI must pay fees for its members to the state and national NAMI organizations. Name, address and contact information for members should be entered into the national Web membership site. Help with this process, called "Using NAMI Webmembership" is available in the Affiliate Guide.

NAMI Michigan obtains its membership information and mailing information from this national database. Local affiliate treasurers or other designated person should keep this information up to date. Members can also access their own personal information to keep it up to date.The amount of the dues depends upon the type of membership and the local affiliate dues. The Table below shows the current dues structure.
