We offer a support group for families who have a loved one receiving treatment in one of our mental health and addiction programs.
For family members, helping a loved
one who is struggling with a mental health or substance use issue can be
extremely difficult. By connecting with other people who are also trying to
help someone with mental illness and/or addiction, you can find support and
understanding.
Our family support group, run by
family volunteers, offers a safe place to share and process your experiences
with supporting a loved one living with mental illness and addiction
challenges, as well as your insights into navigating the B.C. health care
system.
The Family Support Group is open to all family members, loved ones and support people of current or former clients or patients in the following BC Mental Health and Substance Use Services programs:
You are welcome to take part in the support group either in person or via phone.
The support group meets on the third Monday of each month (except holidays) from 6:30-8:00 p.m.
Please stop by the front desk to obtain a parking pass.
