No. Students in fields such as nursing, psychology, or social work may not attend NAMI support groups for observation or to meet academic requirements. NAMI support groups are designed to be safe, confidential spaces where participants can share openly; limiting attendance helps protect members’ privacy and fosters trust.
If a student has a mental health challenge or a close family member with a mental health condition and wishes to attend as a participant, he or she is welcome to join the group.
