NORTHSIDE ATLANTA
SUPPORT GROUPS
NAMI family support groups are open to all
adults who have a family
member or friend who is living with mental
illness, regardless of
diagnosis.
Please feel welcome to drop by and share your feelings,
difficulties, or successes. Everyone is a valued participant. Also,
as a family member or friend of someone with a

good it is to be with others who can say,
“I’ve been there, I understand.”
