NAMI SUPPORT GROUPS LUZERNE AND WYOMING COUNTIES
Our mission is to provide advocacy, education, support, and public awareness so that all individuals and families affected by mental illness can build better lives.
Helping Luzerne & Wyoming Counties
Our NAMI chapter supports families and those who are impacted by mental illness that live in Wilkes-Barre, Hazleton, Kingston, Hanover Township, Plains, Pittston, Exeter, Plymouth, Swoyersville, Edwardsville, Nanticoke, Pittston, Tunkhannock, Factoryville, Nicholson, Noxen, and more.
Support Groups
Every 2nd & 4th Monday of the month, we host support groups for peers & for family. These meetings are held in separate rooms to create an atmosphere of authenticity and confidentiality.
Peer Support Group: a support group only for those living with mental illness. No family, caretakers, or friends are in these meetings. A separate support group for the family is available at the same time in a different room.
Family Support Group: a support group for family, partners, and close friends of adults living with a mental illness. A separate support group for those living with mental illness is available at the same time in a different room.
Share problems you are facing and learn how others have dealt with the same issues. In a confidential environment, share your concerns and ask questions about housing, medications, government programs, therapists, and anything else troubling you. You can talk with no fear of stigma or shame. No registration, just walk in. You will be welcomed.
Hosted at the NAMI Luzerne-Wyoming Counties Office in Kingston. Starts at 5:00 pm
