Free Family-to-Family Course for Family Members Who Have a Loved One with Mental Illness

Family-to-Family is a free, eight-session education program for family members of adults living with a mental health disorder and is designed to help family members understand and support their loved one while maintaining their own well-being.

The class will also cover information on illnesses such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, major depression and other mental health conditions and is taught by trained teachers who are also family members that know what it is like to have a loved one struggling with a mental health disorder.

The class is offered through NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, which is the nation’s largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to building better lives for those affected by mental health disorders. Classes will be in person and will follow all County Health Department and COVID requirements.
