NAMI Family Support Group Facilitator (Volunteer)

Calendar Get Connected Icon ongoing
Time Currently 7pm-8pm on the 4th Monday of the month

Description

Support someone who is supporting someone else.

NAMI Northwoods is looking for volunteers to help lead our Family Support Group, a space for people who have a loved one living with mental illness.

As a facilitator, you’ll help create a welcoming, respectful environment where participants can share, listen, and feel less alone. You don’t need to have all the answers. You just need to be willing to show up, listen, and help guide the conversation.

All facilitators receive training and ongoing support from NAMI, NAMI WI, and NAMI Northwoods.

This role is a great fit if you:

  • Have a loved one living with a mental health condition
  • Believe in the power of shared experience
  • Can hold space for others without judgment
  • Want to turn your experience into something that helps others


Because when families feel supported, everything changes.
