NAMI – NATIONAL ALLIANCE ON MENTAL ILLNESS
If you or someone in your family is dealing with Post Traumatic Stress (PTSD) then you will benefit from checking out the resources available through NAMI. While this is a national organization, you can get directly plugged in right in your own area.
To visit NAMI’s main website, go to http://www.nami.org/. You can search for local chapters of NAMI in your area.
If you are in the Central Kentucky area, you can contact the local NAMI office. Visit their website at http://namilex.org for information.
The local chapter of NAMI in Lexington, Kentucky, is reaching out to veterans and their family members. Be sure to check out the Family to Family class offerings, the Family Friday orientations and support group, and the Family Support Group which meets each Sunday afternoon. There are a number of ways that veterans and their family members can get plugged in and get support. Military Missions is working with NAMI to be sure we are reaching our veteran community here in Central Kentucky.
