NAMI : Family-to-Family Education Program

A series of 12 weekly classes are structured to help caregivers understand and support individuals with serious mental illnesses:  major depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder, borderline personality disorder, panic disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and co-occurring brain disorders with addictive disorders. The course is taught by trained NAMI family member volunteers who know what it’s like to have a loved one struggling with one of these brain disorders. Over 150,000 people in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico have completed this course. Participants will gain knowledge, hope and empowerment. We invite you to call for more information.
