Family Support Groups

FREE small groups for individuals and family members

Small groups (usually a group of six to ten) share their mental illness problems and stories. Since everyone attending has or is going through the same things, everyone understands and offers comfort. Often someone has a helpful idea or describes a similar experience and how it worked out. NAMI San Fernando Valley is made up of volunteers who have faced mental illness and have experience that can help you. We’ve been there and we are here to help you. We welcome you to visit any of our regularly scheduled meetings. No one has to share unless he or she wants to. There is no need to register in advance, RSVP or prepare. Simply join us at any time to see and hear for yourself how NAMI San Fernando Valley helps. Each group is coordinated by a long-time NAMI San Fernando Valley volunteer who keeps things going and makes sure everyone who wants to talk gets a chance.

Find the group and location that is best for you by visiting our online NAMISFV calendar to see What's Happening today for NAMI SFV members and community.
