NAMI Keystone Pennsylvania and affiliates offer free support groups for individuals, families, and caregivers affected by health conditions. The confidential groups are led by trained peer facilitators who know what you are going through.
NAMI support groups help participants aim for better coping skills and find strength in shared experiences. Groups meet weekly, every other week, or monthly, depending on location. Some support groups meet in person, while others are virtual and attendance is open to everyone no matter their location.
NAMI offers two primary support group programs:
NAMI Connection Support Group - for adults with mental health conditions.
NAMI Family Support Group - for family members, significant others, and friends of people with mental health conditions.
