Peer to Peer Education Program, Behavioral Health

The NAMI Peer-to-Peer program is for people with any serious behavioral health disorders who are interested in establishing and maintaining their wellness and recovery.  The course provides tangible resources, survival skills for working with providers and the general public, mindfulness exercises to help focus and clarify thinking, and a “relapse prevention plan” to help identify tell-tale feelings, thoughts, behavior, or events that may warn of impending relapse and to organize intervention.  The class follows a structured format, in a confidential setting, providing emotional support, information and resources, and coping skills.
