RESOURCES FOR YOUTH WHO HAVE A PARENT OR SIBLING LIVING WITH A MENTAL ILLNESS
NAMI has received an alarming amount of interest in programs and resources for youth who have a parent or sibling living with a mental illness. In response to this critical need, NAMI has collected information from experts on the topic and have also compiled a brief list of programs developed by NAMI local and state organizations.
The materials NAMI has collected are attached to this email and include:
