Current Family Support Groups
We have two types of support groups for family members of loved ones living with a mental illness.
NAMI Family Support Groups: Confidential support group for loved ones of individuals living with a mental illness.
LENS Support Groups: LENS stands for Learning, Education, Networking and Support. LENS groups are confidential support groups of caring individuals looking at and dealing with mental illness. These groups are open to both individuals living with mental illness and family members of loved ones living with mental illness.
All support groups are offered at no cost. All groups are offered to those 18 and older.
Call our office at (513) 351-3500 with questions or for more information.
Please note: Observers are not permitted to sit in on any NAMI education program or support group.
