NAMI Peer-to-Peer is a unique, experiential learning program for people with any mental health diagnosis who are interested in establishing and maintaining their wellness and recovery.
What does the course include?
* Peer-to-Peer consists of ten two-hour units and is taught by a team of two trained “Mentors” and a volunteer support person who are personally experienced at living well with a mental health diagnosis.
* Mentors are trained in an intensive three day training session and are supplied with teaching manuals.
* Participants come away from the course with a binder of hand-out materials, as well as many other tangible resources: an advance directive; a “relapse prevention plan” to help identify tell-tale feelings, thoughts, behavior, or events that may warn of impending relapse and to organize for intervention; mindfulness exercises to help focus and calm thinking; and survival skills for working with providers and the general public.
Mandatory requirements in order to take this course are you must be 18 years old or older, have a mental health diagnosis, and be able to read.
Thank you for understanding those facts.
