What is NAMI Connection?
NAMI Connection is a recovery support group program for adults living with mental illness that is expanding in communities throughout the country. These groups provide a place that offers respect, understanding, encouragement, and hope. NAMI Connection groups offer a casual and relaxed approach to sharing the challenges and successes of coping with mental illness. Each group: • Meets weekly for 90 minutes • Is offered free of charge • Follows a flexible structure without an educational format • Does not recommend or endorse any medications or other medical therapies All groups are confidential – participants can share as much or as little personal information as they wish. Meetings will be guided by NAMI Connection’s “Principles of Support”.
