PAR, Inc. Supports Mental Health with Donation to NAMI
In the spirit of generosity and community support, PAR, Inc., a premier publisher of psychological assessment tools, has announced a significant donation to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). This contribution marks the eleventh year of PAR’s Pay It Forward campaign, a thoughtful initiative designed to support charitable organizations on behalf of their valued customers. Through their focus on mental health and education, PAR is playing an integral role in enhancing awareness and providing vital resources for those affected by mental illness.
The Pay It Forward campaign has become an emblem of PAR’s commitment to acknowledge the important work undertaken by mental health professionals. For years, the initiative has gathered input from the company's clients, who primarily represent fields related to psychological and educational assessments. This year's survey revealed a strong preference for NAMI as the recipient of a $5,000 donation, reflecting the organization’s impactful presence as the largest grassroots mental health advocacy group in the U.S.
Kristin Greco, CEO of PAR, expressed her pride in the company's philanthropic efforts. "We began our Pay It Forward campaign many years ago to honor the important work our customers do every day. While we provide our customers with insights and information to assist clients and patients throughout the year, this allows us to support them in a different way," Greco highlighted.
The collaboration with NAMI ties back to PAR's dedication to mental well-being and aligns perfectly with their mission of enhancing lives through effective assessment tools. Greco further added, "NAMI is dedicated to raising awareness and providing support and education on the topic of mental health. This is vitally important work and aligns with the work we do at PAR. We are honored to be able to contribute toward that purpose."
NAMI has long been a champion for mental health, advocating for education, support, and understanding for individuals and families affected by mental illness. Their efforts include promoting awareness campaigns, offering educational resources, and providing support networks for those in need. By donating to NAMI, PAR not only supports the organization’s initiatives but also amplifies the voices of those offering essential services to millions nationwide.
The Pay It Forward campaign serves as a reminder that the collective efforts of businesses like PAR can have a profound impact on society, particularly in the realm of mental health. As more awareness is raised around mental illness, organizations like NAMI play a crucial role in fostering a culture of understanding and compassion.
In addition to their charitable contributions, PAR, Inc. remains steadfast in its mission to provide high-quality psychological assessments that empower individuals and professionals alike. Founded in 1978, PAR is dedicated to expanding access to reliable tools that cater to various mental health needs.
