This support group is a safe, confidential space where Black and African-American men can share experiences and emotions and feel less alone, for others may have gone through similar situations. Led by NAMI-trained volunteers with extensive personal experience coping with mental health challenges, this support group breaks down stigma and fosters a judgment-free zone where we can listen and be heard.

Tue, Aug 19, 2025, 12:00 AM UTCGrupo de Apoyo en Español Para Padres de Niños con Preocupaciones de Salud
Link visible for attendees
Cada tercer lunes del mes de 5:00-7:00pm PT

¿Estás preocupado por el comportamiento de tu niño o adolescente? ¿Las clases o actividades sociales se le dificultan por sentirse ansioso o deprimido? Los síntomas de enfermedades mentales para niños y adolescentes pueden variar mucho, haciéndolo difícil de identificar temprano. Las preocupaciones sobre el estigma, medicamentos y tratamientos pueden prevenir a los padres de buscar tratamiento para los niños o adolescentes.

Te invitamos a que te unas a nuestro grupo de apoyo de salud mental donde padres y cuidadores pueden tener un lugar seguro y de bienvenida para compartir las experiencias de cuidar a un niño o adolescente con cualquiera de estas preocupaciones. Regístrate en nuestro group por este link. Este grupo está dirigido en asociación con Support for Families of Children with Disabilities. Escribe a info@supportforfamilies.org si tienes más preguntas.

Los grupos brindan conocimiento y comprensión junto con la oportunidad de compartir experiencias en un entorno confidencial. Juntos, intercambiamos historias, brindamos apoyo y construimos esperanza y comprensión. Aprenda de otros sobre recursos locales, organizaciones comunitarias y estrategias personales de afrontamiento.

Los grupos están dirigidos por profesionales capacitados o compañeros de NAMI con amplia experiencia personal en el manejo de enfermedades mentales y su impacto en las familias. Grupos gratuitos y confidenciales por zoom y presenciales

Needs location
Welcome to this Spiritual Support group!
This is a spiritual support group for people of all faiths or no faith, for those who themselves have a mental illness and for those who love someone who has a mental illness. Send request to Pjevans02@gmail.com to get a link. We ask those who wish to, bring a quote from a source of inspiration on the topic of the week. We also would like to offer to anyone who would like to sing a song or read a poem to open or close, to please send an email to Pjevans02@gmail.com so that we can put you on the schedule.
We also offer an in-person support group on the 2nd Thursdays of each month! If you are interested, email Pjevans02@gmail.com for the full details.

What to expect in our groups:
We will take turns reading a quote, and then we or others in the group may make short comments about the quote. Each person is asked to follow the guidelines of being respectful, keeping comments upbeat (let's leave politics out of it), contributing from your own perspective, and remembering that we want all voices to be heard. We want this to be a positive experience for everyone.

Upcoming Topics:
1st Thursday of September: Courage
3rd Thursday of September: Peace
1st Thursday of October: Justice
3rd Thursday of October: Mercy
1st Thursday of November: Radiance
