NAMIam will offer a new, FREE "Family-to-Family" course beginning February 12, 2019. This will be the 14th time this course has been offered in our area and is presented by trained educators.
Classes will meet every Tuesday, 6-8:30 PM for 12 weeks at 129 W. Baraga Avenue, Marquette. Classes are educational, supportive, and are completely confidential. NAMI "Family-to-Family" is a class for families, partners, and friends of individuals with mental illness. The course is designed to facilitate a better understanding of mental illness, increase coping skills, and empower participants to become advocates for their family members. This program was designated as an evidence-based program by SAMHSA.
