A program dedicated in empowering family members supporting a loved one with a mental health condition.
Who?
We welcome family members of those diagnosed with a mental health condition to join one of our NAMI Family-to-Family classes. We offer online classes, best practices, crisis planning, resources, and support for those who care for someone diagnosed with a mood disorder, psychosis, or related disorder.
Our courses are led by trained facilitators who are also family members of adults living with mental health conditions. We are here to help.
