Register today! 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, meaning 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.
NAMI Family-to-Family is taught by NAMI-trained family members who have been there, and includes presentations, discussions and interactive exercises. NAMI Family-to-Family not only provides information and strategies for taking care of the person you love, but you'll also find out that you're not alone. Recovery is a journey, and there is hope.
You will learn how to:
- Solve problems and communicate effectively
- Take care of yourself and manage your stress
- Support your loved one with compassion
- Find and use local supports and services
- Handle a crisis
And you will learn about:
- Current treatments and therapies
- The impact of mental health conditions on the entire family
- Up-to-date information on mental health conditions and how they affect the brain
