I understand that all NAMI programs are copyrighted. I will adhere to the Program Operating Policies and Conduct of Conduct, and I will present according to these policies at all times.  


I understand that my attendance at the NAMI Connection Facilitator Training does not guarantee that I will be certified as a Connection Facilitator. If I receive facilitator certification, I understand/agree to serve as a leader in twelve support group meetings during a two-year commitment, or close to these time limits. The time, energy and expense of training each facilitator make this a necessity. It is understood, of course, that unexpected situations may occur that will necessitate compassion and flexibility in this policy. 

I agree to only use approved NAMI Connection materials that are provided in my Leader Manual. I also agree to send all reports to the local NAMI Affiliate Program Coordinator and to the NAMI State Program Director.
