Description: National Alliance on Mental Illness

Babu Mathew is the President on the Board of Directors at NAMI
Colorado. He grew up in India. Before moving to the U.S.A. in
1994, he had over 2 decades of experience in Sales &
Marketing in the Printing & Graphic Arts Industry in India. His
life would change forever back in 2010, when his daughter
was diagnosed of Anxiety & Depression. He had been
intimately involved in supporting her journey and her path to
wellness, ever since. During 2013-14, he had collaborated with
the support groups of Depression & Bipolar Support Alliance
(DBSA). Babu found “a home” in NAMI in 2015 and ever since,
has been a part of the local NAMI Family Support group. He
and his wife have taken the NAMI Family-to-Family training.
Babu is a certified Teacher for the NAMI Family-to-Family &
Family and Friends programs and has taken the Mental Health
First Aid training, as well. For 2 years from 2014, he led a
Refugee Mentoring Project from his Church in collaboration
with Lutheran Family Services & Denver Rescue Mission. He
has been a member of the Interfaith Network on Mental
Illness (INMI) from 2015 and is very passionate about
promoting mental health awareness and support to interfaith
and the South Asian communities. Babu lives in Morrison, CO
with his wife of 38 years. He loves to spend quality time with
his only daughter and son-in-law (who are trained “NAMI In
Our Own Voice” presenters) & “grand puppy, LEVI”, who with
his energy and unconditional love, is a tremendous source of
joy, peace & HEALING!
