NAMI Connection is a free, weekly support group where any adult with a mental health diagnosis can share experiences in a safe, confidential setting. NAMI-trained peer facilitators guide groups using a structured model to ensure all have the opportunity to be heard, supported, and encouraged without judgement. The group encourages empathy, productive discussion and a sense of community.
