NAMI
South Bay offers Caring and Sharing Meetings, the Family to Family
Program, the Peer to Peer Program for persons with a mental illness and
the Connections support group for persons with a mental illness. The
Caring and Sharing Program is offered just before the regular monthly meeting
on the third Monday of the month at 6 PM in the Fireside Room at the First
Lutheran Church. The Caring and Sharing Program is facilitated by an
experienced NAMI family member. At the Caring and Sharing issues,
problems and possible solutions to problems with regard to persons
with a mental illness are discussed and shared. If the third Monday of the
month falls on a holiday, the Caring and Sharing and regular monthly meeting
are moved to the fourth Monday. Also, in December and May the Caring and
Sharing may be canceled as there is usually a special meeting of NAMI South Bay
at this time. In August there is usually no Caring and Sharing.
