NAMI Family-to-Family
Do you have a loved one struggling with a mental health condition and want to learn how to better navigate the situation? Join us for our upcoming Family-to-Family class starting in February
NAMI Family-to-Family is a free, 8-session educational program for family, significant others and friends of people with mental health conditions. It is a designated evidenced-based program. This means that research shows that the program significantly improves the coping and problem-solving abilities of the people closest to a person with a mental health condition. It is taught by NAMI-trained family members who have been there, and includes presentations, discussions and interactive exercises.
Classes will be on Saturdays, 9 am to 12 noon HST
