Knowing how to help isn’t always easy. Sometimes we’re not sure what to say, how to listen, or where to turn for support.

Join us for a free NAMI Knowledge Forum, presented in partnership with the Brea Resource Center, for a candid conversation on how to support a loved one with compassion while empowering them to get the help they deserve.
