NAMI Peer-to-Peer is a free, recovery-focused course for adults (18 and older) wishing to establish and maintain wellness in response to mental health challenges.

The next class begins on June 2 and runs 8 weeks through July 21. 

Classes will be held on Fridays from 6:00-8:00 PM in Chad’s House located directly behind The Carriage House at 3327 Lake Avenue Fort Wayne, IN 46805.

Classes are led by NAMI-trained facilitators who are your peers–they’ve been where you are. The program includes presentations, discussion and interactive exercises and is completely confidential.

    Note: NAMI does not recommend a specific medical therapy or treatment approach.
  • Sharing your story and strengthening relationships
  • Creating a personalized relapse prevention plan
