| Free NAMI Wake Class In Raleigh for Caregivers Family-to-Family is a class designed for parents, siblings, spouses, and adult children of persons with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, major depression, anxiety disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. It is not appropriate for people who have a mental illness. Our teachers have family members with mental illness which means they have walked -the-walk of a caregiver. Nearly everyone who has taken the class recognizes improvement in how they feel about how they handled day-to-day crises. Many have said the class is more valuable than any they have paid to attend including career and relaxation classes. Classes will meet from 9-12 every Saturday morning for twelve weeks starting September 11. If you registered earlier this summer, call to confirm continued interest. Class will be held at a central Raleigh location. Class size is limited to 20 amd is filling now. Call Susan Hadley (787-5999) for registration. |
