NAMI- St. Croix Valley is starting a Family to Family support group.

The group will be available to people who are in need of other family members who understand the challenging situation that they are experiencing.

The group will maintain an open drop-in status for people so it is available to family members or caregivers in need of support.

We will be meeting at 6 p.m. on Thursday nights at Wellhaven Apts, 119 Union St., across the street from the public library in River Falls.

For information call Denise Hackel: 1-715-639-2078; or Marg Downing: 715-307-0355

NAMI stands for National Alliance on Mental Illness. We are dedicated to the support, advocacy and education of persons, family members and care givers who struggle dealing with mental illness.
