Support Groups 2008

 

What are NAMI Support Groups?

 

Are Support Groups for me?

The NAMI support group model operates differently than other, more traditional “share-and-care” groups.  The NAMI support group model offers a set of key structures and group processes for facilitators to use in common support group scenarios.  Our support groups ensure attendees a chance to share and participate. 

 

A support group can provide relevant information, a connection to personal experiences, listening to others’ experiences, provide sympathetic understanding and establishing social networks.  Knowing that there are others who have shared your same experiences may cause a sense of relief because you are not alone.
