Family support groups are volunteer led groups for family members and loved ones of someone that has experienced symptoms of a mental health condition. Family is something different for everyone; and we at NAMI Portage want to recognize that. We want to embrace different definitions of family. Each group is 90-minutes; and led by NAMI-trained volunteers. These groups are a safe place to share one’s coping strategies, learn from each other’s experiences, and offer acceptance and understanding.
We are looking for volunteers with lived experience as a family member and/or caregiver of someone living with a mental health condition to facilitate a support group for other family members/caregivers.
